Very Few People Come this Way is an epistolary novel set mostly in Japan. In the background are the last dying twitches of the student rebellion and a huge bribery scandal that led to the fall of a prime minister. The Year of the Rabbit referred to in the subtitle is 1975. The epistolists are three in number, two Americans and a Japanese. The Americans ravage the Japanese lyrical spirit with gusto. The Japanese correspondent wishes to take it seriously, but whether she succeeds better in her purpose than they do in theirs is doubtful.
