Endō Shūsaku’s fiction explores the contrast between Japanese and Western perspectives, as seen in his 1955 novellas White Man and Yellow Man, which address themes of collaboration, monotheism, and morality. Other works, such as the novels Silence (1966) and Samurai (1980), center on Japanese history, including the arrival of Christianity in Japan in the 16th century.
