About the productJapanese

Limited to 800 copies
Bookshop Edition: GINZA TSUTAYA BOOKS limited edition cover
First-run limited edition: Signed postcard included

The Tokyo subway is said to have an average of over 8 million users per day.

This book is a compilation of images that Murakami Jinichi has been taking of Tokyo and its surrounding subways for 20 years, since his student days.

Starting with an image of a train gliding into the station platform, the book is printed in rough monochrome, as if to imprint the particles suspended in the subway, and the paper used for the cover, endpapers, and main text has a rough texture that feels comfortable in the hand, making this a high-quality book that allows you to feel the breathing and transportation network that is the lifeblood of a big city.

Includes a preface by Daido Moriyama.

The cover of GINZA TSUTAYA BOOKS limited edition is an image of "Tokyo Tower" overlooking the city. A signed postcard is included with the first limited edition.
