Overview

Una historia de venganza y redención en el Japón de los señores samuráis. El guerrero a la sombra del cerezo fue finalista al Premio Fernando Lara del Grupo Planeta y ganadora del Premio Hislibris de Novela Histórica.

Japón, finales del siglo XVI. El país deja atrás la Era de los Estados en Guerra y se adentra en un titubeante periodo de paz. Entre las víctimas del largo conflicto se halla Seizo Ikeda, único superviviente del clan regente de la provincia de Izumo, huérfano a los nueve años tras el exterminio de su casa. Hostigado por los asesinos de su familia y condenado al destierro y al olvido, inicia un largo peregrinaje al amparo de Kenzaburo Arima, último samurái con vida del ejército de su padre, convertido ahora en su mentor.

En el otro extremo del país, Ekei Inafune, un médico repudiado por aplicar las artes aprendidas entre los bárbaros llegados de Occidente, se veimplicado en una conjura urdida a la sombra de los clanes más poderosos del país. Una conspiración capaz de acabar con el frágil periodo de calma que da comienzo.

Una novela cruda y bella, cargada de matices, que nos hace viajar a través de un Japón devastado por más de dos siglos de guerra, entre cuyas cenizas, sin embargo, florecen los más hermosos cerezos.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A story of revenge and redemption in Japan during times of the Samurai Lords. The Warrior Behind the Cherry Tree was finalist to the Fernando Lara Prize by Planeta Group and winner of the Hislibris Prize for a Historical Novel.
Japan, late 16th Century. The country leaves behind the Sengoku period and enters a faltering period of peace. Among the victims of the long conflict is Seizo Ikeda, the only survivor of the ruling clan of the Izumo province, and an orphan since he was nine years old when his clan was eradicated. Harassed by his family’s murderers and sentenced to exile, he begins a long pilgrimage under the protection of Kenzaburo Arima, the last samurai alive from his father's army, and now his mentor.
On the other side of the country, Ekei Inafune, a doctor renounced for using the arts he learned among the savages from the West, was involved in a plot set in secret by the country's most powerful clans. A conspiracy capable of putting an end to the fragile period of peace that existed. A raw and beautiful novel, full of nuances, that travels through a Japan devastated by more than two centuries of war, among whose ashes the most beautiful cherry trees bloom.
