Ryotaro Shiba, one of my favorites red, wrote a war novel, 坂の上の雲, Clouds over the hill. Highly recommended.

Sail fast, live slow! Say the sailors in the Caribbean. I like that saying—especially the second part. Yoshikawa lived after the first part. Write fast! He wrote his many novels obsessively.
Why Taira · 07. Februar 2025
The New Tale of Taira is an eternal novel. What we read there, one does not believe, is happening now. Buddhism condemns it and says: “The one who exploits his power does not survive forever, as if he were dreaming a dream on a spring night. Even the strongest ruler is destroyed in the end, as if he were a speck of dust in the wind.”
Why Taira · 10. Oktober 2024
What wanted Yoshikawa by his historical book? Why Taira now? He definitely did not want to simply translate the classical Tale of Taira in the modern Japanese. He seeked the orientation for the mind how Japanane should live after the II. World War.
