A review by vekto
The Temple of the Golden Pavilion by Yukio Mishima
4.0
A novel replete with metaphysics, theories of beauty, value judgments on meaning, existentialism, and zen teachings.
A novel that doesn’t flow, that is dense and difficult to sink into. But it was worth it, and the ending is one of the best I’ve read.
