PewDiePie mentioned Runaway Horses by Yukio Mishima 6 times

On Felix's bookshelf.

Any advice for people getting into Yukio Mishima? What would I advise? Just read it, it's great! Read the tetralogy. I want to reread Mishima. That was a comfy time just plowing through all this literature. Could read some Mishima. [...] they're all in japan my whole library but I love this book (The Sailor who Fell from Grace with the Sea) so much I bought another copy of it. It's weird with a Japanese author because I love his writing style or his prose so much but it's obviously translated so what does that really say, you know, can I say that I like an author's style of writing even if it's translated?

A lot of his [Yukio Mishima's] work, like 'Runaway Horses', his tetralogy, 'The Temple of Dawn' they all reflect this shift [the westernisation of Japan].

I've read the whole tetralogy already, they are all amazing. However, Temple of dawn is probably my least favourite of them all. Runaway Horses -> The Decay of the angel -> Spring snow -> Temple of dawn.

Runaway Horses is vastly different from Spring Snow, but it still shares common themes around the purity of youth versus the corruption of the adult. It's about the willingness to sacrifice yourself for the greater good and what you believe in. And also the envy and jealousy of that glory, of having something worth dying for. But I think most importantly, the major theme of this novel is... I don't know exactly... to know and not to act is not to truly know.[...] I will give this book 5 out of 5! 10 out of 10! 100 out of 100.

We're going to read "Inferno" by August Strindberg. I want to read "Spring Snow," I think it's called, by Yukio Mishima and "Runaway Horses" by Yukio Mishima I'm gonna be a little bit selfish and just read books that I genuinely just want to read.
