Translated by Shook The head and the creation of words. Mishima had realised that there could not be one without the other. He had realised that if he had had a head like everyone else, he would be dead in the same way the rest die. Definitively. In Mishima’s Head , Mario Bellatin trails his sometimes avatar, the Japanese literary icon Yukio Mishima, across a cyclorama of figures and phantoms, where images and memories flash like photographs in passing view. His ritual decapitation complete, Mishima’s wanderings are headless and propulsive. Histories and stories come and go. A writer’s torment
