If love does not eliminate loneliness, it will eliminate the lover
Mishima's perfect narrative
After her husband passed away, Etsuko lived on her father-in-law's estate.
She seeks a sense of security from the ambiguous relationship with her father-in-law, and also longs for pure and vibrant love from the young hired worker Saburo.
Etsuko's hunger for love can never be satisfied because her intimate relationships are all established in a distorted way.
I have tried time and again to eliminate loneliness with love, but the result has only made me lonelier.
With amazing insight, Mishima once again uses his "extreme writing" to expose the tragic truth about the spiritual level of modern people.
The overall structure of "Thirst for Love" maintains the rigorous pattern of Japanese classical tradition. It is meticulous and exquisite, and the changes of time and space are neatly overlapped. It has been highly praised by critics and praised as "the most rigorous of Yukio Mishima's works."
About the Author · · · · · ·
Author: Mishima Yukio (みしまゆきお, 1925-1970)
There is only one writer in the world who regarded each writing as the last extreme writing before suicide, and eventually became the last traditional "hara-kata" in Japan. Fifty years after his death, he is still the most controversial genius writer in the world, and the "God of Literary Youth" who is hotly discussed by hundreds of thousands of fans on Douban and Zhihu.
He is Japan's most internationally influential literary master - Yukio Mishima.
He was nominated twice for the Nobel Prize in Literature when he was less than 45 years old, and was praised by Yasunari Kawabata as a genius that appears only once in two or three hundred years.
With the influence of "The Temple of the Golden Pavilion" alone, he pushed Japanese literature from an island country to the center of the world literary arena, and he stood out among the world's literary masters with his culmination work "The Sea of Fertility" tetralogy.
He creates original texts at the level of a master of language, and every page is electrified, providing the ultimate experience of love and beauty and subversive, mind-awakening insights.
It has had a profound influence on writers such as Mo Yan, Yu Hua, and Yan Lianke.
Representative works: The Temple of the Golden Pavilion, The Rise of Tide, The Hunger for Love, Confessions of a Mask, The Sea of Fertility: Four Parts
