Based on the 1950 destruction of the Kinkaku-ji in Kyoto, Yukio Mishima’s novel explores the obsessive psychological descent of a young acolyte. The narrative examines the tension between the protagonist's stuttering isolation and his profound, destructive fixation on the aesthetic perfection of the Golden Pavilion. This edition provides a definitive English-language translation of a seminal work in twentieth-century Japanese literature.
