Subject: Is "The Sensual World" a specific reference?
I mean, in the same sense that "Wuthering Heights" is. The reason
I ask is that:
1. The song refers to "stepping off the page.."
2. The pose on the cover photo is very like a picture
I've seen of Yukio Mishima (shoulders-up, bare torso,
flower held up over the mouth). Presumably, there
is a famous story/illustration/photo that both photos
were based on..
