«Shogun» is the historical novel by James Clavell, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback (885 pages, in Spanish).
English captain John Blackthorne is shipwrecked in Japan at the beginning of the 17th century and finds himself caught in the struggle between feudal lords Toranaga and Ishido for control of the country. Amid power games and religious interests, the foreigner adapts to Japanese culture, learns its language and ends up becoming a samurai; a clash between two worlds.
Shogun is the third instalment of James Clavell's Asian Saga. The Spanish translation is by J. Ferrer Aleu.
For readers of historical and adventure fiction, with an interest in feudal Japan and in stories of cultural clash and survival.
