Review:
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 (John Updike 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. (1000 Novels Everyone Must Read Guardian)
