Thank for leaving a comment. I have now added your review to my post.<br />There was quite a bit of a discussion, espeacially due to the fact that most people were not aware that Endo based his novel on true events. It impressed me a great deal. The writing is unusual.Carolinehttp://beautyisasleepingcat.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1434302889299955261.post-12803426213733688042011-06-15T21:54:05.842+01:002011-06-15T21:54:05.842+01:00Hi tony of the 2 I've posted on Stained Glass ...Hi tony of the 2 I've posted on Stained Glass elegies sounds like it could be closer to Silence in subject matter. The Murakami link is merely the similar idea of avoidance of responsibility & possibly the attendant idea of loss of face.
