Thirst for Love
by Yukio Mishima
Mishima presents the story of a young Japanese widow who is the mistress of her father-in-law; he does so in oppressive naturalistic prose, jealousy dominates the householding. The stress is on the in-depth psychological description, especially towards the end: for each spoken sentence Mishima offers a page of description of the emotions and the circumstances. I read this very long ago. At the time it didn't captivate me that much, but I suspect it would now; it's on my to be re-read list. (2.5 stars)
