A quarterly magazine that has been educating readers about the little-known sights of Ishikawa Prefecture’s Noto Peninsula for more than 13 years is poised for a revival this month after being halted following a powerful earthquake that struck four months ago.
Yukio Tsunezuka, the 70-year-old editor-in-chief of the magazine ‘Noto’, who does almost all of the editorial work, had no choice but to suspend its publication after the magnitude 7.6 earthquake that struck municipalities peninsula on January 1. .
But Tsunezuka was encouraged by those around him to start publishing again and is now working on a new edition that will include the lessons of the temblor, which reached 7, the highest level on Japan’s seismic intensity scale.
