With which three works did Kawabata Yasunari win the Nobel Prize in Literature?

1968, he won the Nobel Prize in Literature with his three masterpieces, Snow Country, Ancient Capital and Thousand Cranes, becoming the third Asian to win the Nobel Prize in Literature after Tagore and Shimur Joseph Agnon.

"Snow Country" (ゆきぐに) is the first novella created by Yasunari Kawabata, and it is also his masterpiece of aestheticism. Since 1935, the titles of Twilight Mirror and Daylight Mirror have been published intermittently in Spring and Autumn Literature.

Thousand cranes is a novella by Japanese writer Yasunari Kawabata, published in 1952. This paper mainly tells a perverted love story involving two generations, which shows the conflict between love and morality, and also depicts the scenery and psychology of Japan very delicately. "There seems to be a thousand white cranes dancing in the sunset."

Ancient Capital is the representative work of Japanese writer Yasunari Kawabata. In this novel, Qian baryon and the twin sisters' joys and sorrows and loneliness to the world are described with light and delicate brushstrokes. The author gave them their own concern, sympathy and lament, wrote their bitter life and pure love, and also wrote their yearning for a better life.

Most of Kawabata Yasunari's works describe love, but his love theme is very different from the traditional love theme. Kawabata Yasunari does not pay attention to the lingering and joyful atmosphere of love, nor does he pay attention to the fate and tragic ending of love, but shows a touch of sentimental love.

In Ancient Capital, the love between Xiunan and Qian Baryon, Miao Zi, Qian Baryon, Yizhen and Long Zhu is also very pure and indifferent, and there is no complicated entanglement between them because of love. Everything happened and ended in a dull way, leaving people with endless charm.

Kawabata Yasunari believes that death is the highest art and the expression of beauty, so he completely describes death as a beautiful artistic conception in his works. For example, the death of leaves in the snow country is the continuation of life. After the death of Mrs. Ota in Thousand Cranes, both Kikuji and Wen Zi felt that she seemed more beautiful, and she was really the embodiment of beauty.
