About This Novel
"Confessions of a Mask" is Yukio Mishima's early famous work and one of his masterpieces. It has epoch-making significance in the history of Japanese literature and is rated as "the core and root of Mishima literature". "Confessions of a Mask" is autobiographical in nature, describing the growth process and complex psychological activities of the protagonist "I". In the novel, the sexual desires connected with the happy desires of young people are correctly and calmly organized, expressed, and literaryized. This is not only an important way to understand Mishima's deep thoughts, but also becomes an important reference sample of "youth" that everyone has experienced and frequently reviewed. Mishima adheres to the extreme concept of "people should die when they are young and beautiful". Almost all of his works are "youth-oriented", but only "Confessions of the Mask" is the pinnacle of youth and the swan song of youth.
