Questo non è il classico romanzo feel-good giapponese, dove un anziano insegna a un giovane disilluso ad amare la vita. In questo romanzo c'è molto di più: sia dal punto di vista storico, con le sofferenze dei giapponesi affetti da lebbra (di cui non sapevo nulla), sia dal punto di vista emotivo. Mi ha toccato come pochi altri romanzi hanno fatto.
