Endo's greatness as a novelist is nowhere more apparent than in his ability to recreate the past.
The Samurai is a major new historical novel by Japan's leading writer. Set in the period preceding the Christian persecution, recorded so memorably in Shusaku Endo's internationally accailed Silence, The Samurai traces the steps of some of the first Japanese to set foot on European soil.
