Shuko's autobiography

Post by iam3o5am »

Hello,
Just wondering if someone could tell me the name of Fujisawa Hideyuki's autobiography (original, in Japanese) and perhaps where I could purchase a copy of it. Thank you!

It seems there are a couple of editions:
碁打秀行―私の履歴書 (角川文庫) (文庫)
by 藤沢 秀行 (著)
文庫: 204 pages
Publisher: 角川書店 (April 1999)
ISBN-10: 4043474016
ISBN-13: 978-4043474011
Release Date: April 1999

碁打秀行―私の履歴書 (大活字本シリーズ) (単行本)
by 藤沢 秀行 (著)
単行本: 274 pages
Publisher: 埼玉福祉会 (November 2004)

ISBN-13: 978-4884192990

There are a few used copies listed on amazon.co.jp but the only seller that offers international shipping rates wants 5,600 yen for the book (lowest price for domestic only is 97 yen so YMMV).

Pity there is no English version. I am sure it would make interesting reading.
Still officially AGA 5d but I play so irregularly these days that I am probably only 3d or 4d over the board (but hopefully still 5d in terms of knowledge, theory and the ability to contribute).
