The Setting Sun (new Version)

About This Novel
In postwar Japan, a family of declining aristocrats-a gentle mother, a late father, a seemingly dissolute younger brother, and Kazuko who struggles for love-traveled through their lives in a villa that belonged to them and did not belong to them. Osamu Dazai wrote the story of women's inner emotional struggle and rebirth through Kazuko's first-person narration. The whole book is full of emptiness, uneasiness, decadence and helplessness, but at the end, the author sends a ray of brilliance of life to Kazuko, shining a ray of light in the dark tone of decadence. The entire era is like the setting sun setting in the west. Hezi searched for the rainbow deep in his heart and embarked on the path of pursuing new life and hope alone.
