Deep River | comment |
A novel by Japanese Christian Shūsaku Endō, concerning faith, xenophobia, love, kindness, sacrifice, forgiveness, greed, and a host of other topics, presented by a handful of Japanese people visiting India (each for their own very different reasons). The book is an in-depth examination of what it means to be Japanese, what it means to be Christian, and how these apparently contradictory concepts can be reconciled. A film adaptation was made in 1995.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })It's not well-known in the West, probably because it deals so heavily with the need for Japanese culture, specifically, to open up, but it's sometimes considered Endo's greatest masterpiece. It's also apparently one of two books he asked to be buried with. It was made into a film by Kei Kumai which is notable for being Toshiro Mifune's final film. | |

As the Good Book Says... | |
Deep River / int_2439b588 | comment |
As the Good Book Says...: Justified, given the subject matter. Early on Mitsuko is leafing through a Bible, and encounters the passage "surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows" known as "The Suffering Servant". She spends much of the book ruminating on what this means, and the chapter containing the book's climax is named after the verse. | |

Anachronic Order: The first few chapters serve to explain why each of our protagonists wants to go to India, going back and forth between multiple viewpoints of the past and present. | |
