Sound of the Mountains is one of the representative postWWII works of Yasunari Kawabata. The hero of this novel, Ogata Shingo, realizes that everything is in transmigration after an experience from an opposition to death, to a death acceptance, and to a death surpassion. This rebirth and transmigration embodies the sublimation of the hero’s ideology as well as deepening of the “aging” theme. With its special abstruse beauty and its unique aesthetic perspective, the novel not only explains the particular meaning of “aging” in life recurrence, but also leads readers onto a new artistic arena.
