For the last morning of my Tokyo weekend I wanted to visit Yasukuni Shrine, which had been much in the news recently because every year Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi continues to visit this place, which enshrines Japan's most notorious war criminals.

- Perhaps this helps to explain Stoppard's curious and somewhat leery attitude toward the discovery of his own tragic origins. As the son of a Czech Jewish mother who spent nine itinerant years during the late '30s and '40s fleeing Hitler's net and finally found a haven in England, courtesy of her second husband, a British army officer whom she met and married in India in 1945, Stoppard must have learned the art of camouflage early on. (Dr. Eugen Straussler, the father of Tom and his older brother, disappeared during his family's movements.)
