Shimabara
Author: Douglass Bailey
Set in Japan in the 1630's, a story is told of interwoven fates between the Shogun, Samurais, Ninjas, European Jesuits, and beautiful courtesans. This book captures one's attention when father's betray sons, friends betray friends, priests fall in love with women, and ritual suicide is an honorable and common way to die.
