あらすじ・解説
"No Longer Human" is a semi-autobiographical novel narrated by Yozo Oba, a man who feels profoundly alienated from human society. He sees himself as fundamentally different, unable to connect with others or understand their motivations. From a young age, Yozo adopts a facade of clownish behavior to hide his true feelings of despair and existential angst. The novel traces his life through various stages, from childhood to adulthood, chronicling his increasing isolation, descent into addiction, and repeated suicide attempts. The story is presented as a series of notebooks discovered after his death. **English translation is genarative by generative AI
