In 'No Longer Human,' Dazai takes you on a haunting journey through the tormented psyche of its protagonist, a soul gripped by existential despair and the relentless quest for authenticity. His lyrical prose weaves a narrative that challenges the very essence of humanity, leaving you captivated and profoundly moved.

Meanwhile, in 'The Setting Sun,' you'll step into the melancholic beauty of a world recovering from war, where fading era meets indomitable human spirit. Follow Kazuko, an enigmatic protagonist, as she navigates a society in transition, torn between the allure of Westernization and the weight of tradition. Dazai's masterful storytelling, reminiscent of the classics, transports you to a bygone era, immersing you in the complex emotions of characters adrift in a changing world.

“Art dies the moment it acquires authority.” So said Japan’s quintessential rebel writer Osamu Dazai, who, disgusted with the hypocrisy of every kind of establishment, from the nation’s obsolete aristocracy to its posturing, warmongering generals, went his own way, even when that meant his death―and the death of others. Faced with pressure to conform, he declared his individuality to the world―in all its self-involved, self-conscious, and self-hating glory. “Art,” he wrote, “is ‘I.’”
