| DECAY OF THE ANGEL/a name taken from the ultimately last book in the final tetralogy of novels by the late, great post-war Japanese writer, Yukio Mishima. Mishima completed his very last book and upon hand-delivering the manuscript to his publishers, subsequently occupied the headquarters of the Imperial Japanese Defense Ministry and committed ritual suicide in the honorable way of the SAMURAI,by self-inflicted disembowelment (known in the modern english lexicon as "harakiri"; literally to cut open ones' own stomach).Truly Japans' "LAST SAMURAI". |
