Foreign Studies
Endō writes about being a Japanese student in 1950s Paris, feeling the weight of cultural difference like a physical thing. The alienation runs deeper than language barriers—it's about fundamental ways of understanding the world. His prose carries the quiet precision of someone who's learned to observe carefully. This finds readers who've felt like outsiders, who understand that some distances can't be bridged by good intentions alone.
