Summary, Etc.
  • Summary, etc. - "The author was sent to Mindanao, Philippines in 1944 as a Japanese soldier during the Asia-Pacific War. In this book, he describes focusing on man who turned into "awful devil" killed cruelly each other, bared a through-and-through human egoism to survive, conducted a lot of mad behavior and betrayed a person's trust in the battlefield. This book also describes to broaden his horizons until tragedy and terrible circumstances about local people, Japanese labor in there, war orphans, their second generation and their family brought about by war as well as rugged civilian life and Filipino sentiment toward Japanese." - Masuko Takehisa
