Thirst for Love is a novel by Yukio Mishima that explores themes of passion, desire, jealousy, and frustration in human relationships. The story centers on Etsuko, a widow who moves to her father-in-law's estate, Yakichi, and becomes involved in a sexual relationship of submission with him, while falling in love with a young servant named Saburo. The novel examines the complexities of love and hate, as well as the poison that obsession and frustration can instill in interpersonal relationships.
