much needed update (is months late)

i originally bought this book to have a print version of 'patriotism' at hand and decided to give it a go straight off, and while my reading progress doesn't live up to it, mishima genuinely surprised me with this excellent collection offering a unique blend of morbid aestheticism and decadent living.. an experience i haven't had with my initial encounter with his work :'>
