Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"With great skill and intelligence...Gai-Jin is just the ticket. It has it all: murders, battles, rapes, earthquakes, sword fights, insanely convoluted political intrigues, and innumerable accounts of 'pillowing' with beautiful women."--San Francisco Chronicle

"A grand historical perspective that makes us feel we're understanding how today's Japan came into being...absorbing...full of rich characters and complicated action." --New York Times

"Engrossing...entertaining...the broad portrait is accurate and as colorful as an ancient Kabuki play."--People

"Breathtaking....worth every word, every ounce, every penny."--Associated Press

From the Trade Paperback edition.
