"The Sailor Whom the Sea Fell Out of Love" is perhaps Yukio Mishima's most passionate novel. This short, yet profound and symbolic work reflects a turning point in the great writer's worldview upon returning from his circumnavigation, imbuing his work with new meaning.

The love between Ryuji, a sailor dreaming of glory and deeply connected to the sea, and the widowed Fusako initially captivates her thirteen-year-old son, Noboru, who secretly spies on his mother and sees Ryuji as the embodiment of true courage, heroism, and freedom. But when Ryuji decides to remain ashore for Fusako's sake, to become her husband and a father to Noboru, this provokes the boy's fierce resistance. The three people's feelings become entangled in a web that cannot be unraveled. Rapid events lead to an abrupt and unimaginable conclusion.
