Hanio, protagonistul, incearca sa se sinucida. nu-i iese. cit de ridicol (pentru el). nu mai vede sensul vietii (un nihilist; de fapt, romanul e mai degraba existentialist, mai ales dupa schimbarea mentalitatii eroului). isi pune viata la vinzare (un amanunt interesant: niciunul din clientii lui nu-i va cumpara, de fapt, viata, cit moartea), iar de aici incepe intreg absurdul (iata, de asta am uitat sa mai zic). cert este ca Mishima realizeaza intr-un atit de scurt roman un melanj intreg de genuri: mistery, thriller, fantasy, romance, erotic, comedy scl.; relevant insa este cit de bine reuseste sa parodieze toata existenta japoneza (umana, intr-o acceptiune extensiva, daca vreti; nu voi vorbi despre schimbarile societatii s.a.m.d.) unde totul este, de fapt, ceea ce pare (of, cit cinism): oamenii fac absolut, dar absolut tot, din plictiseala. si dintr-o ura, furie, scirbosenie, dintr-un dispret stupid. despre Hanio, la un moment dat, ni se zice: el voia sa traiasca. dar avea oare curajul, dupa ce fugise o data de oameni, sa se intoarca in duhoarea lor? il are. eu nu l-as fi avut. pentru ca el constientizeaza, intii de de toate, nu lipsa sensului, cit prezenta nonsensului in intreaga activitate umana. de aici porneste el, in intregul proces de convalescenta emotionala si psihica de dupa sinuciderea esuata, incercind, cumva involuntar, sa aduca inapoi pe podium sensul (foarte greu; avem de a face totusi cu o scriere de dupa WW2; stim cit de afectat a fost Mishima de aceasta perioada postbelica, cit de nationalist era s.a.; avangardele apar si din cauza ca oamenii nu credeau ca mai exista sens dupa un razboi atit de profund inutil, iar cu totii suntem familiari cu fraza ,,cum sa mai poti scrie poezie dupa Auschwitz?"). concluzia la care ajunge, dar pe care insa nu o constientizeaza, sau cel putin nu o expune in vreun rind, e ca ar trebui sa nu ne mai luam atita in serios (n-am stiut ca nebunia e atit de distractiva. daca stiam, innebuneam mai repede). si ca viata e frumoasa (paradoxal!). si ca, de fapt, ai pentru ce sa traiesti. el, pentru cerul plin de stele. cit de romantic....more

You successfully murdered the Author. The power is in your hands! Oh, well, not exactly, not really, not completely. The ultimate strength lies in the Writing itself. Of course, it's the Author who wrote the Writing, but the Writing doesn't belong to the Author; it's something free, has its own course, and can only be defined within itself. Does that make sense to you? Well, you actually might not be as powerful and cool as I made you seem. You can only exist by giving interpretations to the Writing, yet you'll never be able to fully comprehend it. Yeah, the Writing is the actual boss. We're all suckers. The end....more

Everything has already been written. You're the sum of everyone and everything that's been before you. And you gotta do some work, gotta sweat, gotta accept the fact that all of that follows you and it's stuck somewhere in the back of your mind. If you get to know your history, our history, the universal one, you become part of the Tradition. You are the Tradition. And it's good. It's perfect. It's a sense of belonging. Of course, you can still be original, and so on. But only by contributing to the Tradition. We've already discussed this, you are part of it and you can't get away from it. So don't be scared. Try to embrace it. And be smart. Contribute to it. It's wonderful to know that, even when you're unconscious of it, Homer and Dante and Shakespeare and Flaubert and Neruda are all present, right next to you, at every moment. They're not laughing at you for not being valuable, but are trying to express themselves through you, over and over, in a new way. You are the Inovation. You are the continuation of the Tradition. Speak your own language. Hug the legacy. It's proud of you....more
