No Longer Human is a novel written by Japanese author Osamu Dazai. The story is told from the perspective of the protagonist, Yozo Oba, who narrates his life story in a series of confessional diary entries.
Yozo Oba is a young man who struggles with feelings of alienation and despair. He never feels like he fits in with society and constantly puts on a façade to hide his true self. As the story unfolds, Yozo’s psychological and emotional troubles deepen, leading to a downward spiral of self-destructive behavior and substance abuse.
The novel explores themes of existential angst, identity crisis, and the search for meaning in a world that seems indifferent and incomprehensible. Yozo’s struggles with mental illness, social alienation, and personal demons make him a deeply flawed and tragic character.
No Longer Human is considered a classic of Japanese literature, and it has been praised for its raw and honest portrayal of human suffering and existential despair. Despite its dark themes, the novel ultimately offers a poignant and thought-provoking reflection on the complexities of the human condition.
