ellaruehsen 's review for:

No Longer Human by Osamu Dazai
1.0
dark slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Meh. Conceptually fascinating (I love a dark read and a hate-able main character and it was extra intriguing that the author died by suicide around the time the book was put out) but wow was this dry and the ending fell flat. Writing is either extremely unartistic or it’s a shit translation or both. Also you can tell the author (AKA the main character) hates women. Rip tho
