Ian Telfer reviews The Bells of Old Tokyo by Anna Sherman, which is published by Macmillan. Part-travelogue, part-meditation, this is an intriguing book about Japan's capital as it is and was, and its relationship with time. Sherman takes us on a search for the city's lost bells, which previously marked the time.
