Disqualified from the World
About This Novel
"Disqualification in the World" (also known as "Disqualification as a Human Being") was published in 1948. It is an autobiographical novel. The delicate autobiography reveals the ultimate decadence and is a destructive masterpiece. Dazai Osamu skillfully hides his life and thoughts in the life experience of the protagonist Ye Zang. Through Ye Zang's monologue, we can peek into Dazai Osamu's inner world, a "life full of shame." In the same year that this work was published, Osamu Dazai committed suicide.

When "I" was a child, I saw the subway in a picture book. "I" always thought that it was designed and built because the fun of riding a car underground is much higher than that on the ground. I never thought that it was built for actual needs.
"I" was born in the northeastern countryside, and I am not considered well-informed. The first time I saw a train was when I was a little older. At that time, "I" climbed up and down the overpass, thinking that it was just to make the train station as interesting as a foreign amusement park. Climbing up and down like this was very special.
"I" have been in poor health since I was a child and am often sick, so I spend most of my time in bed. When lying on the bed, "I" think these beddings are the most boring decoration. But it was only when I was in my twenties that I realized how practical these things were.
