Lighthearted, insightful, and uproarious at times, In the Sunlight of Sakurajima follows a novice English teacher as he lands unprepared in strange and foreign Japan, yet makes the most of it at every turn. He navigates the ways of his city hall office, makes friends near and far, creatively solves some English teaching challenges, and explores his surroundings with wide eyes and an even wider smile. Along the way he meets quirky, fascinating people, sees stunning natural beauty, experiences some natural and man-made disasters, and even embarrasses himself with some choice faux pas. By the end of two years there, Bartlett hasn't just learned the Japanese language and culture, he's discovered that he's fit in so well that he can call his city home.A sweet and nostalgic look at how a writer made the absolute most of his two years with the JET Program, teaching English to students, but learning about himself as well.
