Ariel’s Reviews > No Longer Human > Status Update

I can’t remember how I first came upon No Longer Human, but it was after reading about Junji Ito’s manga series adapted from Dazai’s book that I prioritized reading it. A translator’s note compares Dazai to 18th-century philosophers, & the narration of semi-autobiographical character Yozo Oba feels particularly Kafka-esque from the beginning.
