Mishima's greatest novel, and one of the greatest of the past
century' The Times A band of savage thirteen-year-old boys reject
the adult world as illusory, hypocritical, and sentimental, and
train themselves in a brutal callousness they call 'objectivity'.
When the mother of one of them begins an affair with a ship's
officer, he and his friends idealise the man at first; but it is
not long before they conclude that he is in fact soft and romantic.
They regard this disillusionment as an act of betrayal on his part
- and the retribution is deliberate and horrifying. VINTAGE
