spiderfr0mmars's review against another edition
the way in which women are described ruined my reading experience and makes me want to never read a book written by a man ever again.

Entertaining but sort of descends too much into a male fantasy. The final part is a hilarious piece of satirical commentary. Mishima's musings on nihilism are engaging. Yet the male fantasy esque sex and constant exposition drops, means this isn't as brilliant as I had hoped.

Good book to finish a day after having a panic attack. connect with and hope to disagree with so much of its ethos but it's utterly compelling.
