«Memorias del guerrero Kumagai» is the historical novel by Donald Richie, published by Alianza in paperback (352 pages, in Spanish).
In his monastic retreat, Rensei, an elderly man, recalls his past as a samurai: before taking holy orders he was Kumagai no Jirô Naozane and took part in the clan wars of Heian-era Japan. In those memories appear honor, loyalty, betrayals, and the splendor of that world.
Translation by Mariano Antolín Rato. Work originally published in English in 1999; this 2012 Spanish edition belongs to Alianza's 13/20 collection.
For readers of adventure fiction interested in feudal Japan and its wars.
