I picked this selection because of the title, and felt that the title was quite appropriate after reading the book.  I truly enjoyed the book and highly recommend it.  Even though Ken had endured many terrible times during his imprisonment, he was able to rise above this, and showed a remarkable understanding of the Japanese culture.  I was there in the late 50's, and had a similar feeling without having gone through the many bad experiences that he had.  The Japanese are truly a remarkable people, and we really can't hope to really understand them.  We basically are in just two different worlds, or at least we were then.
