Reviews

One of the finest historical novels written by anyone, anywhere . . . Flawless
*David Mitchell, author of CLOUD ATLAS and THE BONE CLOCKS*

This is a masterpiece. There can be no higher praise
*Daily Telegraph*

One of the finest novels of our time
*Graham Greene*

A remarkable work . . . sombre, delicate and startlingly empathetic
*New Yorker*

Superb and harrowing - his masterpiece
*Observer*

A marvellous book . . . Shusaku Endo is giving deep thought to the most basic problems of truth and how in exchanging it among ourselves we misconstruct its nature at every step
*Spectator*

Silence is a compelling historical fiction, a potent distillation of the paradoxes and ambiguities of faith and, from a Christian author, a daring challenge to religious orthodoxy.
*Guardian*
