Silence
Book Cover
A speculative cover for the Shūsaku Endō book, Silence. It's a very interesting and melancholic read following a pair of Jesuit priests who travel to Japan during the Edo period in the time of the Kakure Kirishitan -- the Hidden Christians. It deals with heavy themes like persecution, the ethics of apostasy, and martyrdom.
