Tsundoku is a real Japanese word meaning the accumulation of unread books — a feeling any bibliophile can relate to. The Kanji characters literally mean reading pile, with a connecting Hiragana character in the middle. The definition in the design says, “reading pile; accumulating books faster than one can read them.”
The 15-ounce coffee mug has a black handle and black interior, which integrates perfectly with the calligraphy.
T-shirts and sweatshirts are available in a variety of colors — looks great in navy blue, maroon, forest green, charcoal heather, or dark grey. A very cool gift for any reader or fan of Japanese culture.
English speakers are both fascinated and baffled by long German compound words. The word Betriebswirtschaftsbuchzusammenfassungen wraps around this beer stein (Bierkrug) or beer glass. The word means business book summaries. Something to parse and ponder while you enjoy your beer. Zum Wohl! (Cheers!)
In the book Forest Bathing by Qing Li, the Japanese words Shinrin-Yoku (森林浴), and Komorebi (木漏れ日) are introduced. Shinrin-yoku means forest bathing, or taking in nature through yours senses. The kanji characters for komorebi mean “trees leaking sunlight.” T-shirts and sweatshirts are available in a variety of colors.
