Lamentations of the Wise Man of Asia follows a nameless elder through the Meiji era as villages turn into railheads and fear learns new disguises. With a fan in one hand and a brush in the other, he answers death, fire, censorship, and haste with scroll-sized maxims, practical engineering, and stubborn compassion. From bridges to telegraphs, from paper walls to iron dreams, each chapter pairs a structure raised in wood and steel with a structure raised in the mind-showing how wisdom can modernize without losing its soul.
