Дисквалифициран като човек е историята на Йозо, който от малък решава, че е по-лесно да играеш ролята на шут, да разсмиваш хората, да не им отказваш нищо, за да те оставят да обитаваш някъде по периферията на живота им и да не те изхвърлят съвсем. Поради тази причина познатите му никога не успяват да го вземат несериозно. Баща му отказва да му даде обич, "приятелите" му се възползват от него финансово и всякак, и в резултат от всичко това, той става жесток към жените, които го обичат. А те са били толкова много. Както самият той казва, "надушват самотата в теб и се залепват". Но дори когато не ги е ... |

Разгърнат в ранните следвоенни години, този мощен роман, обхващащ проблемите на една нация в социална и морална криза, изследва разрушителните последици от войната и прехода от феодална Япония към едно индустриално общество. Въпреки че Осаму Дазай се самоубива през 1948 година, влиянието на този роман, често считан за негов шедьовър, е толкова силно, че терминът хора на залязващото слънце (тоест отмиращата аристокрация) се превръща в неразделна част от японския език. Героите в Залязващото слънце са жертви на преходен за морала период. Героинята на Дазай, Казуко, младата аристократка със силна воля, която умишлено ... |

"Добре дошли в Тъгата. Население - един. Истинският фарс е начинът, по който обвинявам тъмното минало на жена си за проблемите си, докато се люшкам между радост към скръб. Истинският фарс е в начина, по който оправям яката си, докато влизам в заложната къща, вярвайки, че таи изиграна увереност, арогантност дори, ще прикрие истината за пълното падение, за това колко дълбоко съм се сгромолясал. Всички ние сме клоуни. Ако искаш да видиш фарс, погледни се в огледалото. Човек, смазан от реалността, играе шоуто на издръжливостта и силата. Ако това е нещо, което не можеш да проумееш, скъпи читателю, значи аз и ти никога ... |
