In commemoration of the fiftieth anniversary of the death of Yukio Mishima, one of the leading figures in modern literature, The Death of a Man presents a sublime--and often shocking--visual record of the last few months prior to his sensational ritual suicide in November 1970. The author of masterworks such as The Temple of the Golden Pavilion and Forbidden Colors, Mishima, a celebrated figure in postwar world literature, remains a controversial figure in Japan. His reactionary politics and the spectacular nature of his death had so profoundly impacted Japanese society that images associated with the event were never publicly shown.In the months prior to the November incident, he enlisted Kishin Shinoyama to create a photographic, radical work of fiction, a photo essay on the death of the Japanese "everyman." In images often suffused with militarism and eroticism, a parade of men, including a sailor, a construction worker, a fisherman, and a soldier, are shown meeting grisly, dramatic ends.
Published for the very first time, these stylized images of men dying alone serve as prologues to the real-world culmination of Mishima's pursuit of total art. Locked in a performance with one inescapable end, Mishima offered his own body as its final act. With texts by Mishima and his closest intimates and first-person reminiscences of his final moments, this book promises to be an unprecedented interrogation on the nature of performance and the role of artist as actor, provocateur, and revolutionary.

very cute - not for most dogs
Very cute but not made for dogs who carry their toys. I purchase toys such as this every few months because my dog loves to snuggle and play with them. She has many of them and delights in carrying her new ones with her. This is the first stuffed toy that's only lasted a few days. She does not tear into her toys nor is she hard on them. Most of her toys are still intact. The one's that are worn are at least two years old so this was surprising. This toy would be great for a dog that lays still with it, won't carry it and just cuddles. It wouldn't last two seconds with a dog that is hard on their toys.

Remains a favorite
Color: Orange
This toy was perfect for my pup who's a big biter and most toys will last about 2-3 days. The material on this toy is very durable and remains the favorite with the crinkling sound.
