By now, Yukio Mishima s (1925-1970) dramatic demise through an act
of seppuku after an inflammatory public speech has become the stuff
of literary legend. With Patriotism, Mishima was able to give his
heartwrenching patriotic idealism an immortal vessel. A lieutenant
in the Japanese army comes home to his wife and informs her that
his closest friends have become mutineers. He and his beautiful
loyal wife decide to end their lives together. In unwavering detail
Mishima describes Shinji and Reiko making love for the last time
and the couple s seppuku that follows."
