Almost daily, letters pour into his home at Matsumoto from men looking for "a girl as pure as the limpid waters in the brooks of the Japan alps" or a young lady "with the most charming eyes," and from girls seeking the "right boy."

After that comes some pure kitsch. "Oh, I've got it all running down my chinny-chin-chin," he cries cutely as he savors a leg of lamb.
