Features: The natural scenery of the island depicted in The Waves is beautiful, and the people and emotions on the island are even more so. This beauty—life, vitality, and health—is vividly presented to readers through the masterful pen of Yukio Mishima. In my childhood, my father often told me the story of the Golden Pavilion. I was born in a desolate cape of the Japan Sea in Higashimatsuhara, Wajima. My hometown is not here but in Shire, east of Wajima.
