This Month's Book:
Forbidden Colors
by Yukio Mishima
1951, 400 pages
An aging, embittered novelist sets out to avenge himself on the women who have betrayed him. He finds the perfect instrument in Yuichi, a young man whose beauty makes him irresistible to women but who is just discovering his attraction to other men. Pressed into a loveless marriage, Yuichi enters the gay underworld of postwar Japan. This modern masterpiece is mordantly observed, intellectually provocative, and filled with icy eroticism.
