It's available to me in Australia (although for $10 grumble grumble grumble). And I have to say - I was rather taken with the description in the first post, not of the book necessarily, but of the author.

Yes, we have four definite confirms and are one day down. We need six more confirms and have two days left to go. Anyone can confirm.

If it was available as an eBook, I'd confirm it.

One of my top 5 songs of all time (etc. etc.) is "Death and Night and Blood" by the Stranglers, which is about Yukio Mishima. As a result I look forward to giving this month's choice a go . |

I don't see why we can't discuss this and change it if necessary, but I hate to see the process derailed. JMO, of course. |

I'll confirm it.
I'm definitely putting this author on the radar of potential reads. I've managed to find a pile of Japanese and Chinese authors that I had never heard of in selecting some of the books for my reading list next year: Kenzaburo Oe Gao Zingjian Ha Jin |
