Title: Rings true for many people.
Product review: For me, this book was painfully accurate. I wish I had read it before moving to japan. Or read it early in my stay.In some ways, Rhiannon was positive about her situation, compared to others I've known.I knew some long-term expatriates who "went native". Even they said that if they had started out working in a Japanese office, they would never had stayed.Western women in Japan frequently have a much tougher time than men.The culture is so much based on uniformity. The Japanese have a saying: "The nail that sticks out gets hammered down." Whereas in the US, people say "You can't fit a square peg into a round hole".
