"I have been reading selections from the Museum of Fine Arts reading list in an MFA reading group. The books correspond to some of the art we discuss on our tours."
"Very well written. Benfey's attention to detail makes one think these are fictional stories when actually, the book is entirely based on fact. How did he learn so much about all those historical figures? It is a wonderful look at the opening of Japan to the U.S., as well as the fascination Westerners held towards all things Japanese during that era. I found it slightly boring here and there but that could be my own lack of tolerance for extremely detailed history lessons. Otherwise, an interesting read."
"This book started off well and then got a bit boring since many of the people discussed were in earlier sections of the book. Anyway, not interesting enough to recommend to anyone."
