Summer of Genji

Hi again. One of our lovely members told us about an online discussion forum between current readers of Genji Monogatari. The members are trying to read this ancient tale by the end of the northern summer, so why not join them? http://summergenji.wordpress.com/about/
Enjoy!

Happy Family Plan

Happy Family Plan is a new DVD addition to the library. A lovely, touching film with the special addition of the language resource, Disk 2, created by The Japan Foundation. Special note - check out the Top Ten Nihongo on Disk 2 to see the very funny, loveable Shingo Usami, who will be back in Perth for our September seminars. You can buy your own copy of Happy Family Plan and then bring it in for Shingo to sign!
