As for my favourite, I'm going to have to go with "Spring Snow" by Yukio Mishima. Unfortunately, I've been unable to find it in e-book format. I have quite a few runners up, "favourites" are always a tough choice for me.

Yeah,
Spring Snow is a great book. Have you read the complete tetralogy:
Spring Snow,
Runaway Horses,
The Temple of Dawn, and T
he Decay of the Angel? If not you really should, all are equally good. Again if you have not I don't want to give to much away, but the end of the last book in the series is just great, calling into question the line between dreams and reality.
My favorites would have to be:
Fiction:
Seven Japanese Tales by Junchiro Tanizaki
Non-fiction:
Civilisation by Kenneth Clark.
