Author's Note: Of these 12 short stories, gathered in my travels from Tokyo to Trumpington, ten are based on known incidents - some embellished with considerable license. Only two are totally the result of my own imagination. I would like to thank all those people who allowed me to learn some of their innermost secrets. - J.A. September 1988.
