From the little that I had read about Endo's life, I had already guessed as much. I reassure Mr Kato that to my mind Endo's great gift to his readers, Japanese or otherwise, is to dignify ambiguity. To celebrate the puzzling grey area, and remind us that those old loyalties and certainties are, in our modern world, subject to fluidity and transformation irrespective of what the authorities above us - religious or otherwise - might have us believe.
