A very short and non-in depth look at the film career of Meiko Kaji. I'm a huge fan of LADY SNOWBLOOD and the FEMALE PRISONER SCORPION series. As such, I was looking forward to reading this since there's not much literature available to her fans here in the western hemisphere. The book chronicles her film career mostly and briefly discusses her TV and music careers as well. While the book is enjoyable with a lot of photos and a few behind the scenes stories, I would have liked to have had more of a background on Meiko herself. The book picks up when she began modelling at 17 and started her film career shortly thereafter. However, with so little material available to her English reading fans, I guess you take what you can get.
