All Intensive Purposes

Long-time readers may recall that I recommended a book called Kuhaku, the first offering from Chin Music Press. Over at Albatross Smile (coincidentally, a blog with impeccable taste), Aaron points out that Chin Music Press is launching a Voices of New Orleans blog in conjunction with their second publication, Do You Know What It Means To Miss New Orleans. Aaron adds that Kuhaku, which I should be rendering with a little line over the first "u" (like this: Kūhaku), "is more fun to read than a game of lazer-tag, on drugs, with candy." And as this suggests, it's a beautiful book. (Buy it through this link to support this blog.)
