Short Review: Silence and Beauty is a profound reflection on the book Silence by Shusaku Endo, the role of art and beauty in Christianity, and a reflection of the impact of Christianity on the culture of Japan. I am not going to say tons more about it now because I have purchase the paperback copy of Silence (I listened to it on audiobook the last time I read it) and I am going to reread Silence and Beauty again.

Seriously, this is an excellent book. As a side note, I purchase the hardcover because I was encouraged to get it that way. It has a nice dust jacket and full color images in the center. I re-purchased the Kindle edition because I prefer ebooks and I want to highlight passages for help in writing another review. The Kindle edition has the images in line with where they are talked about in the text. And if you are reading on a color tablet, then the images are in color. Obviously if you reading on a black and white eink reader, the images are black and white.
