THEATER has a unique capacity to touch our best-protected secrets. When it does not try to fight, cajole, or debate us--but rather to beguile us with the notion that it has an existence separate from our own--then we will watch the circumstance unfold with sight unmarred by vested interests. And having wrought its image clearly in our eye, the play can then trust to our restless minds to draw the inescapable analogies to our own experience.

...Nixon's perplexed and frustrated strategists hit on no new grand strategy for fighting impeachment in the House. Publicly, White House aides refused to discuss the subject. Said Warren: "Our strategy will become clear as events unfold in maybe five days, ten days or 20 days." Added Communications Director Ken W. Clawson: "Did Eisenhower tell the Germans when he was going to invade Normandy?" Privately, aides planned a soft-sell campaign to discredit the charges by contending that they are too flimsy and general to be considered grounds for impeachment-the same arguments voiced by Nixon supporters...

...Mishima writes with a powerful insight of the problems of man's relationship to the world and to reality. The clarity of his perception is stunning, as the various characters of the book unfold their complex metaphysical relationships. Long passages describing intense self-scrutiny hold the reader in an almost morbid fascination, until he must be relieved at the end to see Honda give up his vain attempts at understanding...
