Book Synopsis
Half a century after his samurai-style suicide, Yukio Mishima remains a controversial figure. Though his writings and life-story continue to fascinate readers, he has often been scorned by scholars, who view him as a frivolous figure. Andrew Rankin sets out to challenge this perception by demonstrating the intelligence and seriousness of Mishima's work.
