This book delves on in this character Yozo as he has grown up reflecting on all of his flaws and blaming himself for everything. He believes in the fact that he is no longer considered a human being and questions what it means to be living. He also convinces himself that others see him that way too. The story navigates its way through childhood all the way to adulthood, and really shows how he dealt through with his depression durning that time.
