"In a Town Where a River Flows / Kawano Nagareru Machide" is a photo collection by Mitsugu Onishi, one of Japan's leading photographers. Mitsugu Onishi has consistently captured the town on the east side of Tokyo where he lives, from the perspective of a downtown resident. This time, he focuses on two towns separated by the Arakawa River, a river that has appeared many times in Onishi's work. "Small towns with small factories, shrines, alleyways, elderly people, cemeteries, and vacant lots. They are just ordinary towns, lacking any sense of languid downtown atmosphere. One has a dark history dating back to the Great Kanto Earthquake. The other lies there, silently sleeping, untouched by the exhaustion of the Showa era. I held my breath and traveled back and forth between the towns many times" (from the artist's afterword). The book also includes the text "Eyes Gaining Purity Through Reality" (editor: Shuichi Ikeya).
