500    Translated from the Japanese 
520    "After botching a suicide attempt, salaryman Hanio Yamada 
       decides to put his life up for sale in the classifieds 
       section of a Tokyo newspaper. But what begins as mere 
       nihilism takes a turn for the unexpected as interested 
       parties come calling with increasingly bizarre requests. 
       What follows is a madcap comedy of errors, involving a 
       jealous husband, a drug-addled heiress, poisoned carrots--
       even a vampire. For someone who just wants to die, Hanio 
       can't seem to catch a break, as he finds himself caught up
       in a continent-wide conspiracy that puts him in the cross 
       hairs of both his own government and a powerful organized-
       crime cartel. Wildly inventive, darkly comedic, and at 
       times deeply surreal, Life For Sale is refreshingly unlike
       anything else in Yukio Mishima's oeuvre, and an essential 
       work of international literature, finally available in 
       English"--|cProvided by publisher
