Description: The second volume of legendary animation director Hayao Miyazaki's career memoir continues with essays, interviews, and discussions about some of his most popular films, including Spirited Away and Ponyo. In the mid-1990s, filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki moved from success to success as his work found an audience outside of Japan. His animated films of the era, including Princess Mononoke, Howl's Moving Castle, and Ponyo,were internationally lauded, and Miyazaki won an Academy Award® in 2003 for his popular and critical hit Spirited Away. Follow Miyazaki as his vision matures, as cinema-lovers worldwide embrace his creations, and as critics such as Roger Ebert take up the cause of animation and Miyazaki's films. In a legendary career, these crucial years represent the turning point. Viz Media, Subs. of Shogakukan Inc Turning Point: 1997-2008 - shop the best deal online on thebookbug.co.uk

Review: I'm a Uni student doing a research project on Studio Ghibli and this has been one of the most helpful books I've read. It includes Miyazaki's poetry, lyrics, articles and opinion pieces. It's engaging from start to finish and it's so interesting if you're a fan of his work and want to get a deeper understanding of Ghibli and Miyazaki. It's divided into chapters based on the movies he is working on in chronological order. It's a truly beautiful tribute to his works. Some people have said it repeated points too much which I'd have to disagree with. It repeats sentiments but overall the point made is usually somewhat different, something that I appreciate when researching because it helps with clarity. TL;DR A must read for anyone researching Miyazaki, a good read for casual fans. Couldn't recommend more!

Review: This was a Christmas present and I am still going through the English translated text. As far as I am concerned, this book tells new evidence of old philosophy felt from Miyazaki's tender heart towards the environment, people and communities. Yet the translation from Japanese is a bit off sometimes. Nonetheless, you would love the creative writing and mapping done by Miyazaki if you are a long-time fan like me! Enjoy!
