Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Set in post-World War II Japan, the narrative follows Kazuko as she navigates personal and societal upheaval after losing her family's wealth. Burdened by her mother's illness, a recent divorce, and the trauma of stillbirth, Kazuko's life takes a turn when her brother returns from war, only to struggle with opium addiction. Her brief love affair with a troubled novelist offers little solace, yet she ultimately embraces independence when faced with an unexpected pregnancy, challenging traditional moral constraints. Dazai's exploration of alienation remains relevant, resonating with contemporary readers.
