This for me as well. What the fuck? Even the blurb on the back is a lie.

This is on my list, what's bad about it?

Just had to read this for class. It's oddly compelling but humanity certainly should not produce any more of it.

basically everything i own

Mishima. An interesting man but a fucking dull writer. Maybe it's the translation, but that's what anons are recommending.

Filthy.

Which of his works have you been reading?

...

that's a much nicer cover than the UK Abacus publication

Why do you think that? Is his pacing to slow for you? I found it a little surprising first reading him myself with how gentle and serene many of his books are at first.

Not that user but a little Abacus rant: have you noticed how ugly their book covers are in general? It's like they intend to lower the resolution of many of their book covers' images and leave it at that.

This. What trash.

Also, Vollman fans are delusional.

Confessions of a Mask and Spring Snow.

I started the translation pictured and tossed it aside, too. And then I picked up the Donald Frame translation. Different book. Very good, in fact.

There' strictly nothing bad about it in the original.

>Also, Vollman fans are delusional.

Like you've read any of his work pleb.

The Naked Lunch
