AbstractHistoryArchive Description

The narrator, a westerner, recalls two encounters with a failed Japanese wrestler who hates him malignantly. He beats him off in a street attack the first time but it is only an earthquake that saves him from blindness and a terrible death the second time. Competent suspense, exotic setting, etc. (PB)
