Magokoro Tennyson, ‘Goddess of Sincerity’ greets as you enter the historic Mitsukoshi “dept store” in Nihonbashi, Tokyo.
Which in the west is like a mall. Imagine if you walked into your local and were greeted with a 36 ft sculpture from Buddhist mythology.

Morning! This is an exclusive extract from my new book Maybe I'm Amazed, about my autistic son James & how music became our shared language. Wait for the Velvet Underground bit at the end www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...
‘He nails it on the first take’: how the Beatles helped my autistic son find his voice
