Описание: Growing up in the crime-ridden streets of Los Angeles South Central, Darrell Gartrell could easily have become just another statistic. But an opportunity to travel abroad altered his fortunes forever. Following a backpacking journey across Europe, Darrell arrived in Osaka. There, he became the first African-American to develop a language program centered on urban culture. His school, called Wisdom21, was an instant hit, with multiple branches and hundreds of clients across the country. But doing business in Japan was to come at a heavy price, and Darrells phenomenal success meant that he attracted, not only the attention of the upper echelons of polite Japanese society, but of the feared yakuza (Japanese mafia) as well. Darrell tells his story here, in 21 Years of Wisdom - One Mans Extraordinary Odyssey in Japan, where he shares with readers the back-office rituals, forbidden romances, and mystic customs that date back centuries, yet rarely experienced by a Gaijin, or foreigner, in Japan. 21 Years of Wisdom is a poignant memoir, and a beautifully written African-American biography; chronicling a fight for survival in a strange land; paving the way for those in search of their own path to wisdom-in the 21st century.
