"Patriotism"

Mookse reviews Mishima to fine effect.

With his complexes, obsessions and concerns Mishima has never been one of my favorite Japanese authors.  He has some really fine works, and this reader's review makes me want to reconsider the short stories.  Perhaps time has tempered my impressions.  I love it when I find I've been looking at things the wrong way round.

Indeed, one of the great pleasure in life is being able to repent, change your mind, and enjoy what you had previously forbidden yourself to enjoy.  Too bad so many are so afraid of being wrong.
