In a new translation — a great modern classic novel by David Mitchell, twice finalist of the Booker prize, the author of such an intellectual bestseller like "Dream No. 9", "Cloud Atlas" (recently filmed by Tom Tykwer and the Wachowski brothers), "the Hungry house" and others. "A recognized innovator who has opened new ways in literature, released a charmingly old-fashioned novel in the classical spirit - about love and sacrifice, about the clash of civilizations, about ruthless enemies who will not rest until they destroy your family to the seventh generation" (Washington Post). So, the young clerk Jacob de Zut arrives at the tiny island of Dejima at the side of a huge feudal Japan. Among the cunning merchants, insidious translators and expensive courtesans, he must earn a fortune in five years, enough to ask for the hands of the beloved who remained in Rotterdam — but on Dejima his attention is captured by a young Japanese midwife Orito and the sinister Abbot of the distant mountain monastery of Enomoto-Sensei..."It is for such novels as "a thousand autumn Jacob de Zuta", — wrote the Daily Telegraph, — came up with the definition "masterpiece."
