Animal games
9.99 €
A bombastic literary authority, completely devoid of conscience and sense of proportion; his exhausted and proud wife, to whom he brings one grief; a young man in love with her, who fell into the epicenter of an endless and hopeless family disaster. The triangle is the most stable structure and the most dangerous. Love, jealousy, manipulation, a sense of duty, vice, and a stubborn, if futile, pursuit of virtue are the games of beasts at the mercy of fate. Everyone will suffer, there is no way out and there will be no escape from fate. After you, there will be only a tradition that the rector of the village temple will retell on your grave to a visiting folklorist.
Yukio Mishima (1925-1970) is a star of literature of the XX century, the most read in the world Japanese author, possessor of brilliant talent, famous both for his works of the widest range and variety of genres (novels, plays, stories, essays), and a stunning biography (obsession with bodybuilding, extreme right-wing political views, harakiri after an unsuccessful attempt at a monarchical coup). “Games of Beasts” is a novel of his middle, mature period, a deeply psychological, sometimes bitterly satirical rethinking of the classical plot of the theater but, a story about the unity of tormented souls and the impossibility of breaking out of the vicious circle of love and violence.
