Quote that resignated with me “Mine was a life of shame.” Oba Yozo
I decided to give No Longer Human by Osamu Dazai a 4.75, mainly because
This book is a semi-autobiographical story of author Osamu Dazai’s life. Dazai sadly unalived himself a few months after publishing NLH.
Oba Yozo, the main protagonist, lead a tough life, full of addiction, depression, and anxiety. Which lead him to try and unalive himself with partner Tsuneko. Sadly Tsuneko passed away, but Yozo stayed alive, and was in trouble with the Japanese law enforcement. This lead to more addiction, drinking, and later on morphine addiction
Moderate: Sexual content, Vomit, Suicidal thoughts, Addiction, Drug use, Suicide attempt, and Suicide
