Given the choice, no one ever went to Sado, although the island off the west coast of Japan has considerable natural beauty. Instead, for a thousand years, Sada was a place of isolation and exile for the deposed, disgraced, or just plain distrustedexemperors, aristocrats, poets, priests, and convicted criminals alike. But one year, one May, a British writer set out to circumambulate the island. The trek took him eight days, during which time he explored the truth about Sado's notorious gold mine, tracked down a vanishing badger cult, and visited the headquarters of the famed taiko Demon Drummers. This armchairtravel book describes what Angus Waycott saw and did on Sado and paints a vivid picture of one of Japan's most intriguing backwaters, now emerging from a long exile of its own.
