Japan is in ruins and occupied by the Americans. Hiroshima and Nagasaki have been destroyed.
Takuya, an ex-officer in the Imperial Army, has returned to his native village only to learn that the Occupation authorities ate intensifying their efforts to apprehend suspected war criminals. And those who are found guilty are being senr=tenced to death. Fearing for his own life Takuya takes to the road and becomes a fugitive in his own country.
One Man's Justice is a tale of timeless relevance that deserves to be ranked amongst the classic anti-war novels.
"The clinical documentation of violence on all sides in wartime makes this an unsettling and important book. This novel blurs any distinctions between the victor and the vanquished...Yoshimura depicts a burnt-out moral landscape, all too familiar today." Scotland on Sunday
"The narrative drive has all the pace of a thriller coupled with the interest of a psychological and sociological study." Morning Star
"A hauntingly and beautifully rendered tale of enduring optimism." Herald
