Tak! a commenté Infomocracy par Malka Older (The Centenal Cycle, #1)
Avertissement sur le contenu discussion of character traits, addiction
I think it didn't sink in on my first readthrough that Mishima's fondness for narrative content was framed as a shameful addiction.
I wonder if this is meant to be a comment on the popular view that fiction is idle, time-wasting escapism, while nonfiction is educational and productive.
I also found that the author subsequently wrote a short story on the topic.
