In this collection of 11 short stories written between 1959 and 1985, Japan's master storyteller returns to the themes that have fascinated him and enthralled his readers for decades. Endo observes a variety of characters and emotions, including martyed Japanese Roman Catholics, individuals coming to terms with old age age and facing infirmity, fears and pangs of nostalgia, the incongruity of the Japanese in Europe, spiritual doubts, and sexual yearings. All are described with subtlety and innate passion.
