About This Novel

Osamu Dazai's helpless swan song of life deep in the soul is written to the self in our hearts that was once cowardly but eager to realize. "Disqualified" is the last work of Dazai Osamu's life, and it is also an eternal classic of Japanese literature. The whole book describes Ye Zang's continuous sinking in order to escape reality from childhood, adolescence to middle age. He experienced self-exile, alcoholism, suicide, numbing himself with drugs, and finally walked towards the tragedy of destruction step by step. Through Ye Zang's life experiences and the process of constant self-denial, Dazai Osamu also expressed the depressed emotions buried deep in his heart and the desire to be loved. Therefore, this work is regarded as Dazai's semi-autobiographical work. Through this work, he attempted to raise the most sincere and sharp questions about being a human being to the world. The contradictions and struggles accumulated throughout his life can be seen between the lines. The wonderful thing is that even though Ye Zang mocks himself for "a life full of shame," he is still fascinating, as if he is the only one who truly sees the essence of human beings in the world, shouts out the ugliness of human nature on behalf of the world, and steps towards the road of gradually losing his qualifications as a human being like atonement. After completing this work, Osamu Dazai committed suicide by drowning at the age of 38, marking the final end of his disqualified life.
