The Endo Shusaku Literary Museum (遠藤周作文学館, Endō Shūsaku Bungaku-kan) is a museum dedicated to the life and work of Japanese novelist Shusaku Endo. [1] It is in the Sotome district in the northwestern part of the city of Nagasaki. Sotome is famed as the home of the hidden Christians and served as the scene for Endo's novel Silence.
For Endo, though, this silence is not absence but presence. It is the silence of accompaniment rather than "nihil". This is a notion that has many musical analogies. Music itself grows out of silence. The emptiness and solitude of a composer's silence is nevertheless pregnant with the promise of possibility and potency.
