Pro Reviews: Samurai's Garden
Gail Tsukiyama has crafted a stunning novel that unfolds as quietly and profusely as the seasons. Against the backdrop of wartime aggression, the characters of this memorable book find hope at the end of devastation, beauty lodged deep inside pain.
An extraordinarily graceful and moving novel about the goodness and beauty. Tsukiyama is a wise and spellbinding storyteller.
Publisher Notes: Samurai's Garden
- The daughter of a Chinese mother and a Japanese father, Tsukiyama uses the Japanese invasion of China during the late 1930s as a somber backdrop for her unusual story about a 20-year-old Chinese painter named Stephen who is sent to his family's summer home in a Japanese coastal village to recover from a bout with tuberculosis. Here he is cared for by Matsu, a reticent housekeeper and a master gardener. Over the course of a remarkable year, Stephen learns Matsu's secret and gains not only physical strength, but also profound spiritual insight. Matsu is a samurai of the soul, a man devoted to doing good and finding beauty in a cruel and arbitrary world, and Stephen is a noble student, learning to appreciate Matsu's generous and nurturing way of life and to love Matsu's soulmate, gentle Sachi, a woman afflicted with leprosy.
