Runaway Horses is the second novel in the tetralogy of the most important Japanese author, Yukio Mishima (1925-1970). The story takes place in 1930s Japan and tells the story of Isao Inuma, a passionate and idealistic young man who is obsessed with the idea of restoring the emperor's power and cleansing Japan of Western influences. Isao is deeply inspired by the ethics of the samurai and the spirituality of the past. He is led by a conspiracy that aims to overthrow the government and punish corrupt business briders.
The novel explores themes of respect, loyalty, and the conflict between modernization and tradition. In this novel, Mishima explores the struggle between individual ideals and social reality, emphasizing the conflict between action and thought and its tragic consequences.
Runaway Horses convincingly describes the beauty of death, its essence, its moral, religious or patriotic motives. Purely Japanese aesthetics of heroism are clearly outlined in the novel, however, at the same time, the universal character of life and death, heroism and betrayal, honor and compromise becomes clear.
