AbstractHistoryArchive Description
Prospective Japanese high-flyer Akira Suzuki, comes to London for a little international polish. He combines qualities, classical and modern, that are admired in Japan, but in England he gets the run-around. Seduced by two very different women, he inadvertently bursts into a world of Dockland penthouses and Mayfair clubs; and for one exquisitely embarrassing and erotic hour he is caught between two cultures.
