"Henri Michaux's Un Barbare en Asie was written in the 1930s and first published in 1945. Over the years, Michaux's opinions about some of the places he visited (in particular, Japan) changed, and he made some revisions to the French text. The New Directions Paperbook edition of A Barbarian in Asia, however, is a reissues of the classic 1949 Sylvia Beach translation of the original version." --- Publisher's note, from title page verso.
