When brought face-to-face with one of ippei's many marital indiscretions, koji finds his growing desire for Yuko compels him to action in a way that changes all three of their lives profoundly. Originally published in 1961 and now available in English for the first time, the frolic of the beasts is a haunting examination of the various guises we assume throughout our lives and a tale of psychological self-entrapment, seduction and violence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780241386705\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.6 x 5.1 x 0.6 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English, Japanese\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50124717588784,"sku":"Trans_9780241386705","price":375.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/71m41SbiUuL.jpg?v=1757500976","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/the-frolic-of-the-beasts","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
