Novelist, playwright, film actor, martial artist, and political commentator, Yukio Mishima (1925-1970) was arguably the most famous person in Japan at the time of his death. Henry Scott Stokes, one of Mishima's closest friends, was the only non-Japanese allowed to attend the trial of the men involved in Mishima's spectacular suicide. In this insightful and empathetic look at the writer, Stokes guides the reader through the milestones of Mishima's meteoric and eclectic career and delves into the artist's major works and themes. This biography skillfully and compassionately illuminates the achievements and disquieting ideas of a brilliant and deeply troubled man, an artist of whom Nobel Laureate Yasunari Kawabata had said, 'A writer of Mishima's caliber comes along only once every two or three hundred years.'

读后感

索多玛城里可有美？相信我，大多数人就是在罪恶之地找到了美。你知道这个秘密吗？ 三岛由纪夫，在我的脑海中，浮现的是那个满脸是血的头颅，也因为这个，我从来没有刻意的想要去看清楚他的脸。直到顺手拿来了他的传记，才第一次惊叹于那酷似宋承宪的侧面，也算得上是丰神俊朗...

事实上我确实是不那么喜欢日本文学，这里面不包括大众文学，我们都知道的，推理和侦探小说，在当代，及至整个亚洲，日本绝对是出类拔萃的。我说的是川端康成，芥川龙之介，大江健三郎，三岛由纪夫之流，就像一部源始物语，我读了两年还在止步不前，也许我更在意的是怎样的极...  

本书是世上最早几本三岛由纪夫传记之一（1974年英文初版，1999年修订）。现在看起来，作为早期的、非专业学者所写的二手研究，书中对三岛生平的探讨较无独特性，也不够深入，有一些内容已被推翻（例如说三岛和美智子皇后相亲过，现在一般认为这是三岛吹牛的），对作品文本的分...  

在二战进入尾声的时候，美国为了提前准备对于战败国日本的资料，便组织一批专家学者对于日本进行研究，其中的一位名叫鲁思·本尼迪克特的人类学家在搜集了大量的日本资料、翻阅过众多的日本文学作品，最终交出了名为《菊与刀》的报告。 1970年年底，三岛由纪夫在写完《丰饶之海...

The explanation for Mishima's death lies in his entire life.

型男三岛

对比着读了英文版、日文版和中文版，发现日文版的删节比中文版还多。这本好像过阵儿还会出新的中译本，不知道用的还是不是以前的译本。神奇
