Description
Another book from Clavell's cult historical Asian saga set in the environment and history of the Far East takes us to Japan in the second half of the 19th century, a period of historical turning point: although Japan still clings to traditions and resists the growing influence of white immigrants – gaijin – the wiser ones realize that without embracing the foundations of European and American civilization, the Land of the Rising Sun will not survive in the future. The intricate fates of several main characters vividly depict the clash of two civilizations and cultures and, not least, offer gripping stories full of tension, intrigue, and passion.
