In addition to publishing the photo books ``Oba: Folk Beliefs of Tohoku'' (1979) and ``Tono Monogatari'' (1983), she has also written books as an ethnologist such as ``A Study of Mummy Beliefs'' (1974). . This book is ``Tokyo's Darkness'', which was collected over 15 years by a unique photographer who has been photographing the dark world of Tohoku. Excerpt from the text below: ``The deep jet-black darkness of the Dewa Sanzan gave rise to 'religion' that gazed into the inner world of the human spirit, but the shining darkness of Edo gave rise to 'entertainment' that dug out the depths of the human heart. That's what happened.'' In addition to the interesting text ``Tokyo Theory Notes'', this is a book created by the photographer himself, including the photographs, text, composition, title, and binding. Comes with obi. Signed by the photographer .
