Mishima Yukio's "Yukoku"

[Ivo Smits]

It might interest subscribers of this list to know that Shinchosha is  
planning to bring out the collected works of Mishima Yukio next year.  
Volume one of this new edition will carry a DVD of the notorious and  
surpressed (I suppose would be the term) film "Yukoku" (Patriotism,  
based on Mishima's short story of the same title), for which  
Shinchosa has managed to secure the rights from Mishima's heirs.
