Goodbye: Osamu Dazai's Lonely World

About This Novel
He abandoned his studies, committed suicide many times, was addicted to drugs, owed debts, and was entangled with many women... Dazai Osamu's life was too "unbearable" in the eyes of ordinary people. However, many people like this "waste" writer. The reason why we like Dazai Osamu is precisely because these cowardice, shamelessness and contempt are always looming in our hearts. And this decadent writer who drank alcohol, abused drugs, and committed suicide, in his patient's ravings, just expressed our thoughts. In this society that is still indifferent and homogeneous, Dazai Osamu's dilemma is a reflection of the dilemma we face. Everyone who tries to maintain themselves and be loyal to themselves can feel the social alienation and helplessness that Dazai encountered. This book selects 36 classic works from Osamu Dazai's creative peak period (1935-1948), which fully demonstrates Osamu Dazai's anxiety when he faced the collapse of social order and the collapse of his moral system, as well as the entanglement and loss of his unwillingness to go with the world but his inability to change. It is a valuable choice for readers to "get into" Dazai Osamu.
