Description

A Japanese Catholic, Endo tells the story of two 17th-century missionaries
attempting to shore up the oppressed Japanese Christian movement. Father
Rodrigues has come to Japan to find the truth behind unthinkable rumors
that his famous teacher Ferreira has renounced his faith. But after his
arrival he discovers that the only way to help the brutally persecuted
Christians may be to apostatize himself. Translated from the Japanese by
William Johnston, this special edition is issued in celebration of the
release of Martin Scorsese's film adaptation of the novel.
