三島由紀夫 著, by Yukio Mishima
A family comes to believe that they are aliens who have travelled to Earth from another planet. Through this unusual premise, Mishima explores modern fears about the possible destruction of humanity in the nuclear age, using elements of science fiction and allegory.*
The novel moves beyond the story of one family to examine politics, civilisation, ideas and the future of humankind. A distinctive work of philosophical fiction, it reflects Mishima's views on the fate of humanity and offers a sharp critique of modern society.
地球とは別の天体から飛来した宇宙人であるという意識に目覚めた一家を中心に、核兵器を持った人類の滅亡をめぐる現代的な不安を、SF的技法を駆使してアレゴリカルに描き、大きな反響を呼んだ作品。著者は、一家を自在に動かし、政治・文明・思想、そして人類までを著者の宇宙に引込もうとする。著者の抱く人類の運命に関する洞察と痛烈な現代批判に充ちた異色の思想小説である。
