Coup de coeur
(Fiction), by Sam
A widow raising her child alone by the sea in Japan. A Sailor who doesn't like earth coming back to land, and boy growing with questions and demands. Those three characters, different but bounded by family and love are the focus point of this dramatic story. The ending is surprising and incredible, a must read.
'Mishima's greatest novel, and one of the greatest of the past century' The TimesA band of savage thirteen-year-old boys reject the adult world as illusory, hypocritical, and sentimental, and train themselves in a brutal callousness they call 'objectivity'.
