Reporter Jake Adelstein is invited to spend the night as a host in a Japanese night club in the red light district of Tokyo. And he discovers some surprises, not only amongst the type of customers who are willing to pay for the service in modern Japan, but the reasons these women feel the need to pay for company. Jack Klaff reads this revealing memoir by Jake Adelstein. Abridged and produced by Jane Marshall Productions for BBC Radio 4.
