Book Reviews of The Sailor Who Fell From Grace with the Sea
Book Review: An invitaion beyond the realms of worldly thought
Summary: 5 Stars
Although the only book I have read by Mishima (so far), it is definately among my favourites. Mishima's aim was to shock people, and so he does. Besides providing me with a new perspective upon life and death, land and sea, banality and adventure, it was one of the first books to make me appreciate the conjuring of an atmosphere using descriptive language.
