“In the last analysis my death is a natural one — man cannot live exclusively for principles.”
What else can I say about Dazai’s writing that I haven’t already? He’s just brilliant. Loved this story that dives into the after effects of war. How it changes the lives of ordinary citizens forevermore. Great book!
