Thanks for your interest in the Japanese rights to The Joy of Not Working.
Actually, this book was first published in Japanese by Kodansha.
After Kodansha let it go out of print, the book was again published in Japanese by Voice Inc. (arranged through the Tuttle Mori Agency).
Perhaps you can interest some Japanese publisher in either of the following two books of mine:
For your convenience, I have attached the PDFs with the complete book for both titles.
These are the foreign editions published so far for 101 Really Important Things You Already Know, But Keep Forgetting:
These are the foreign editions so far for Career Success Without a Real Job: The Career Book for People Too Smart to Work in Corporations:
Note that Career Success Without a Real Job was first published in September 2007 with the title and subtitle Real Success Without a Real Job: There Is No Life Like It. It is being released by Ten Speed Press in March 2009 with the new title and subtitle Career Success Without a Real Job: The Career Book for People Too Smart to Work in Corporations:
I can send you a hard copy of the English edition of each of the books if you would like keeping in mind that I will have to send you a copy of the first edition of Career Success Without a Real Job.
For your information, I also have two other books not published in Japanese. The books are:
These two books have been published by foreign publishers but not in English. So, I can only send you PDFs of these two books.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Best regards and so long for now,
