The new translation is the magnificent novel of the modern classic David Mitchell, twice finalist of the Buker Prize, the author of such intellectual bestsellers as "dream No. 9", "Cloud Atlas" (recently filmed by Tom with a pumpkin and brothers Vachovsky), "hungry house" and others. Dadzima is a tiny island at the side of huge feudal Japan, the Dutch trading factor. Japan is a tiny island country at the side of a whole huge world, from which it was fenced off for several centuries and which wants to snatch a tidbit from it, and the Dutch factor is the only window in this world. On Dejima - the abode of cunning merchants, insidious translators and expensive courtesans - a young clerk Jacob de Zut arrives. For five years, he must earn a sufficient state to ask his lover who remained in Rotterdam - however, the young Japanese midwife Orito and the ominous abbot of the distant mountain monastery Enomoto -Sensei take care of his attention
