"The Sailor Whom the Sea Stopped Loving" is perhaps Yukio Mishima's most passionate novel. This short, yet profound and symbolic work reflects a turning point in the worldview of the great writer who returned from a round-the-world voyage, and fills his work with new meanings.

The love of the sailor Ryuji, who dreams of glory and whose life is closely connected to the sea, and the widowed Fusako first captivates her son, thirteen-year-old Noboru, who secretly follows his mother and sees Ryuji as the embodiment of true courage, heroism and freedom. But when Ryuji decides to stay on shore for Fusako, to become her husband and a father to Noboru, this causes fierce resistance from the boy. The feelings of three people are intertwined into a single ball that cannot be untangled. Rapid events lead to a sudden and unimaginable ending.
