5.0 out of 5 stars Long Search Rewarded, April 14, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Ba-ra-kei: Ordeal by Roses (Hardcover)
It took a long time for me to find this book (courtesy of Amazon.com) but it was definetly worth the frustration! This book of photography is a MUST for serious Mishima / Hosoe collectors and fans - it offers not only a set of beautifully taken photos but a deadly and not insignificant insight to both the photographer and his tempramental subject. Buy, beg, steal but whatever you do dont borrow it because you will be a sad man when the day of parting comes........

This review is from: Ba-ra-kei: Ordeal by Roses (Hardcover)
This is a perfect artbook about this Japanese genius: Yukio Mishima.
Great quality paper and full page photographs.
This book is an open door into the mind of the most controversial and fascinating artist from the last century.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another aspect of Mishima, December 30, 2001
This review is from: Ba-ra-kei: Ordeal by Roses (Hardcover)
A world apart from his words, movies, and actions, this team effort with the famed japanese photographer will surprise. The centerfold image with a sledgehammer starting straight up at the lense is chilling. Black and white photos are offset with unique use of monochormatic coloring to further shock the eye. 10 years after finding this one I am willing to part with it. If you are a interested collector contact me at mmurd@hotmail.com
