The Temple of the Golden Pavilion
Yukio Mishima, Ivan Morris (translation), Nancy Wilson Ross, Fumi Komatsu, Donald Keene (introduction)°°°
A haunting portrait of a young man’s obsession with idealized beauty & his destructive quest to possess it fully—& the book that “established Mishima’s claim as one of the outstanding writers of the world” (The New York Times).
Mizoguchi, an ostracized stutterer, develops a childhood fascination with Kyoto’s famous Golden Temple. While an acolyte at the temple, he fixates on the structure’s aesthetic perfection & it becomes his one & only object of desire. But as Mizoguchi begins to perceive flaws in the temple, he determines that the only true path to beauty lies in an act of horrific violence. Based on a real incident that occurred in 1950, The Temple of the Golden Pavilion brilliantly portrays the passions & agonies of a young man in postwar Japan, bringing to the subject the erotic imagination & instinct for the dramatic moment that marked Mishima as one of the towering makers of modern fiction.
With an introduction by Donald Keene; Translated from the Japanese by Ivan Morris.
