Tonan no Tsubasa (19)

"Riding the wings of the phoenix" echoes the title of the book. Tonan (図南) refers to the fabled southern flight of the phoenix (鵬), with the same nuance as "Go west, young man." So the saying "The wings (tsubasa) of the phoenix" came to mean setting off with big plans in mind.

Thanks for the translations! Just wondering if there is something wrong with the page 20 link or is it not translated yet?

Thanks.
