Voices of the Fallen Heroes: And Other Stories

內容簡介

內容簡介 「這些故事是憤怒、慾望和美味殘酷的波濤，總是被美與死亡親吻著」—— 瑪麗安娜·恩里克斯 (Mariana Enríquez)來自日本文壇偶像三島由紀夫，一組抒情而縈繞心頭的 1960 年代短篇小說選集。故事簡介一位作家被末世異象所攫住；三個垮掉的一代（beatniks）在廢棄教堂的廢墟中隨著現代爵士樂起舞；一場招魂儀式召喚出充滿譴責之意的陣亡將士的亡魂。在《墮落英雄的聲音》（Voices of the Fallen Heroes）中，赤裸的自傳性與純粹的恐怖形成鮮明對比；初戀的溫柔讓位於痴迷、心碎和死亡之美。在其中一個故事裡，三島記述了一位精神錯亂的狂熱粉絲在黎明時闖入他家的真實事件。在其他篇章中，一位美麗的青年透過暴力謀殺獲得了永生；一對不匹配的戀人則用一副撲克牌封印了他們的命運，糾纏在時間與未實現的慾望之網中。本書是首次以英文出版，並由專業譯者精心挑選，這些引人入勝的故事是三島由紀夫誕辰 100 週年之際，介紹其作品的完美入門。'These stories are waves of fury, desire and delicious cruelty, always kissed by beauty and death' Mariana EnríquezA new selection of lyrically haunting 1960s short stories, from a Japanese literary iconA writer is seized by apocalyptic visions, a trio of beatniks dance to modern jazz in the ruins of an abandoned church, and a séance brings forth the reproachful spirits of the military dead.In Voices of the Fallen Heroes, stark autobiography contrasts with pure horror, and the tenderness of first love cedes to obsession, heartbreak and deathly beauty. In one tale, Mishima recounts the true story of the time a deranged fan broke into his home at dawn. Elsewhere, a beautiful youth achieves eternal life through violent murder, and an ill-matched couple seal their fate with a pack of cards, tangled in the web of time and unfulfilled desire.Available in English for the first time, and carefully selected by expert translators, these captivating stories are the perfect introduction to Mishima's work, on the 100th anniversary of his birth.

作者介紹

作者介紹 Yukio Mishima was born in 1925 in Tokyo, and is considered one of the Japan's most important writers. His books broke social boundaries and taboos at a time when Japan found itself in a state of rapid social change. His interests, besides writing, included body-building, acting and practising as a Samurai. In 1970 he attempted to start a military coup, which failed. Upon realizing this, Mishima performed seppuku, a ritual suicide, upon himself. He was nominated for the Nobel Prize for Literature three times.
