In Praise of Shadows by Jun'ichirÅ Tanizaki. I have always had a feeling that perfection and cleanliness was misplaced in aesthetics, it is the imperfections that give things character and soul. It was really refreshing to pick a book that clarified and expanding on these feelings, but also combined that with my passing interest in Japanese style and culture.
