三島由紀夫 著, by Yukio Mishima
A married couple lose their young children in a tragic drowning accident. Death in Midsummer follows their emotional journey after the loss, from the initial shock and anger to grief, the attempt to escape their pain, and the gradual beginning of forgetting.
This collection also includes Cigarettes, the story that impressed the writer Yasunari Kawabata and helped Mishima make his literary debut, and Haruko, an early and sensual work exploring lesbian relationships.
The eleven stories in this collection showcase Mishima's talent for short fiction. The book also includes a commentary by the author himself.
海難事故で幼い子供を失った夫婦。不幸に直面した衝撃と怒り、悲嘆からの逃避、忘却のはじまり、そして──喪失の後の心情を克明に追う「真夏の死」のほか、川端康成に評価され作家デビューのきっかけとなった「煙草」、レズビアニズムを扱った先駆的で官能的な「春子」など、短篇小説ならではの冴えが際立つ11篇を収録。著者による解説も付した自選短篇集。
