Japanese Style Painting: Hell Transformation
by (japan) Ryunosuke Akutagawa
About This Novel
It was horrifying when I first read it, but I couldn't help myself when I read it again. This is the charm of Ryunosuke Akutagawa's writing, which is profound and cold, and his writing is sharp. This is a story about ideals and reality. The protagonist Yoshihide's entanglement and obsession on the road of creation also alludes to Akutagawa's own thinking on the pursuit of art. Some people spend their whole lives searching for the balance between ideals and real life, and the balance with human morality; some people do not live a life without being crazy, and just to achieve the ultimate in their own eyes, they will go through fire and water without hesitation. Should one insist on the supremacy of ideals throughout his life? What choice would you make?
