I tried to like this book more, but kept feeling bogged down in it and wondering if it was ever going to end. I read it for my book club. It is slow and hard to get into, but does get more interesting in the middle of the story. I'm not sorry I read it, as I learned a lot about Japan and international trade at the turn of the 18th century. There are some interesting stories told, which kept me reading.
