"God of the sea, protect my kind mother and my brother, who is still a child. When the diving season arrives and my mother dives, I beg you to protect her from the numerous dangers... And now I would like to make a different request... Grant one day, even to a person like me, a beautiful and kind-hearted girlfriend... let's say a girl like the daughter of Terukichi Miyata, who has just returned..." Considered one of the most beautiful love stories in literature, The Sound of Waves narrates the romance between two teenagers from a tiny Japanese island where a community of fishermen survives apart from modern civilization, and where the salty smell of the sea and the sound of an intense blue swell that surrounds everything are perceived everywhere.
Kimitake Hiraoka, known by his pen name Yukio Mishima, was a Japanese novelist, playwright, short story writer, actor, martial artist, model, and the leader of an attempted coup d'état that culminated in his seppuku. He is considered one of the most important postwar stylists of the Japanese language.
