Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

'A terrific and astringent beauty ... a work of art' - Times Literary Supplement 'Mishima stands alone. This Japanese writer is to me one of the most important contemporary novelists.' - Angus Wilson, Observer 'Mishima is lucid in the midst of emotional confusion, funny in the midst of despair. His book has made me understand how it feels to be Japanese.' - Christopher Isherwood 'Never has a "confession" been freer of self-pity and emotional over-indulgence.' - Francis Wyndham, Sunday Times

Reseña del editor:

Detailing his progress from an isolated childhood through adolescence to manhood, including an abortive love affair with a classmate's sister, it reports the inner life of a boy's preoccupation with death. The novel's enduring themes of fantasy, despair and alienation have established "Confessions of a Mask" as one of the most important works of fiction to have emerged from Japan in the twentieth century.
