About This Item
Nice spine and very minimal edge-wear. Minimal underlining and notes in ink affecting around 60 pages. Designed by Steven A, Baron. Cover illustration by Mayumi Oda Nathan and cover design by Kenneth R. Deardoff. Includes an introduction by Nathan, which begins, 'I met Kenzaburo Oe in 1964, at Yukio Mishima's Christmas Eve party. I was there because I was Mishima's translator at the time. Oe was there because Mishima had invited everyone who mattered that year, from boxers to drag queens, and because Oe's vanity and maybe his country-cousin curiosity had drawn him to the lights.' 261 pp. Fiction.
