This novel is a great depiction of what it’s like living with depression and how it can cause a person to become self destructive.

344 days to finish 177 pages—but to be fair, i restarted like 3 times because the prose was well above my capabilities initially. i also forgot a lot of the novel's details because it's been a while.

Honestly almost didn't finish this one despite the length. I get the positive reviews, but the narrator is just so insufferable in his angst that it feels like it might be a YA novel. I appreciated the ending and the structure, but damn. If the claims that this is semi-autobiographical are to be believed, I really pity the life of Dazai.
