Journalist Takeji Muno writes in this book, “While accepting reality naturally from the public’s side with the public’s sense, I approach the essence.” For this reason, the subject exposes a simpler and more honest way of life in front of Mr. Kimura's camera.Is this the secret of Kimura Ihei's photography?" It is a review of Kimura, who has become an existence and has photographed the “street corner” as it is.
