The main source of conflict is the dealings between the foreigners
(gaijin) and the Japanese. The foreigners are represented by the diplomats and the traders. Of the diplomats, there are
mainly the representatives of the United Kingdom and France, but the Russia, United States and Switzerland also make
minor appearances. With respect to the traders, there are two big trading houses that play big roles, Struan's and
Brock's (which were both introduced and were the main source of conflict in the previous book). Lastly, within the
foreigners, there?s the pivotal role of Angelique Richaud, a Frenchwoman, and Philip Tyrer, a British translator.

In the side of the Japanese, there are actually two big factions here: the Bakufu, the legitimate Japanese
federal government; and the shishi, the rebel samurai whose goal is to bring Japan back to its previous state, when the
Emperor had full power.

These so far are the players. Now for the themes. One big theme in this novel is the
clash of cultures. Every person, whether foreigner or Japanese, thinks that one's culture is superior to the other.
Everyone has a spirit of ego centrism, always thinking that the other person is rude and barbaric. The foreigners think
that the Japanese are barbaric, and vice versa. It's actually a mean and impressive feat that Clavell achieved here, as
I find no character I like. Having grown up in several different cultures, I have learned to accept different cultures
and be open-minded to others. Thus, this attitude of superiority was actually quite annoying to me as I was reading it.
I think that if I find myself hating a character, it?s because the author has made it realistic enough to agitate me.
And in this book, every character was quite agitating.

Another theme is sex. Believe it or not, sex features
a lot in this book. There’s the issue of concubines and mistresses, geisha and courtesans. There’s also
penis envy and kama sutra, but Japanese style. The Japanese are portrayed to be rather conscious of the largeness of the
foreign penises, but they save face by assuring themselves that they know more about how to use it, and ridicule the
foreigners by saying that they are so ignorant when it comes to sex. Somehow, at one point, I found this talk of sex to
be tiring, thinking whether it is really the case that people think about sex all the time. But then I guess that is
true, even in this modern age, sometimes even in the most serious affairs, we sometimes step out of our seriousness and
mentally undress people in the back of our heads and enjoy a brief erotic moment.

Intrigue is heavy in this
book. In fact, this book breathes of intrigue. People whisper information to one another, and people play mind games to
the umpteenth degree
