"Spring Snow" by Yukio Mishima is the first novel in his Sea of Fertility tetralogy and is set in early 20th-century Japan. It follows the tragic love story between Kiyoaki Matsugae, a young man from an aristocratic family, and Satoko Ayakura, a noblewoman. Their relationship is complicated by societal expectations, family obligations, and the pressures of a changing Japan. Kiyoaki, deeply idealistic and emotionally intense, struggles with his desires and the confines of tradition, while Satoko is caught between love and her duty to marry someone of her family's choosing. Mishima's novel explores themes of love, duty, and the tension between tradition and modernity. With lush prose and a poignant portrayal of youth and heartbreak, Spring Snow examines the fleeting nature of life and the consequences of following or defying societal norms.
