About This Novel
Only pure love can make the body pure. Mishima's unique work "against himself". 1954 Xinchaoshe Literary Award. Mishima said: "I want to write something that is completely opposite to myself." He changed the tragic concept that all characters have a dark side, and love and beauty to the extreme will inevitably turn into violence and death, and set pure characters and pure love in an Eden-like environment. Only pure love can make the body pure, and thus determine the human body to have the highest aesthetic value. He blended Japanese and Greek classical aesthetics to write this pastoral novel of pure love that can make people feel happy. As soon as the novel was published, it triggered a "name-changing craze". Thousands of Japanese girls changed their names to the name of the character in the novel - Hatsue.
