Crown prince's 'happiest time'
The Thames and I by Crown Prince Naruhito
Reviewed by J Sean Curtin

Beyond the carefully crafted public personas, most Japanese know relatively little about the private lives of their imperial family. While the personal lives and intimate secrets of European royals are regularly splashed across newspapers, their Japanese counterparts remain distant, cocooned. It is this inaccessibility that makes Crown Prince Naruhito's memoir of his time at Oxford University between 1983 and 1985 such a compelling read.
