Ariehen Keihanshin Soredemo Ai Sareru, Kyoto Osaka Kobe No "Kettai" Na Memmen (Wani Books PLUS Shinsho)

[Machine Translation] Although they do not care much about differences with Tokyo, they are quite aware of their own region (differences) and are violently exchanging sparks with each other. Each has an unshakable individuality rooted in history, and each is proud of it, but they are often called "naughty," "vulgar," "pretentious," "frustrated," and so on, in front of and behind the scenes. What is really going on here? This is a book that lays bare the unique region and culture of Keihanshin, as well as the "races" that nestle there.

東京との違いはさほど気にしないものの、自分たちの地域(差)はかなり意識し、激しく火花を散らしている京都・大阪・神戸の“けったい”な面々。それぞれ歴史に根づいた揺るぎない個性があり、誇りを持っているものの、「イケズ」「下品」「気取り屋」「いらち」などと、表で裏でけなし合うこともしばしば。果たしてその実態とは―?京阪神という特殊な地域と文化、さらにはそこに巣食う“人種”を丸裸にする、ありえへん1冊。
