The protagonist of the novel Yasuke, kidnapped as a child and enslaved African, is a real historical character of the late XVI century. A servant and bodyguard of Alessandro Valignano, the head of the Jesuit order in Asia, he travels to India and China, learning different languages, and in 1579 he arrives in Kyoto, which provokes a violent reaction - in Japan, blacks have never been seen before. An unusual foreigner attracts the attention of the head of the powerful clan Oda Nobunagi, who makes Yasuke a samurai at his court. Yasuke becomes a master of Japanese martial arts and takes part in battles that determine the further course of the country's history.
