To win after starting apallingly and giving away 12 points which we shouldn’t have done really meant a lot to us.GEOFF COOKE (England manager): We are hardly ecstatic. They might sound, at first, like a cartoon parade of Japanese sex-and-swordplay fantasies, but Endo lends them a fine unruffled simplicity; and there is always a delicate, even wistful autobiographical flavour that makes each story, or each novel, seem like a tender joint cut from the same body of work.Endo was, to begin with, a rare hybrid: born in 1923, he was raised a Japanese Catholic.
