Another book recommendation from my son Coco & his college reading days. This was a very powerful book (historical fiction) about the widespread persecution in Japan during the 1600s that broke out against the Jesuits/Catholics. A movie is being made of this book--starring Liam Neeson--that is due out in late 2016; looking forward to seeing it and how they bring the story to the screen.
I can honestly say that I have never read a book quite like this one and I am finding it difficult to find the words with which to review it as it is so different to my usual reading fare.
