No longer human genre5/29/2023 ![]() ![]() No Longer Human is written from a series of notebooks by the protagonist. No Longer Human puts you into the shoes of someone with a history of neglect, abuse and sexual assault who is manipulative and outright awful, but confident in many ways. ![]() This book is less in the realm of depression and more in the realm of dysfunction and total misanthropy. Truth be told I’m not that opposed to reading about depressed characters. Initially I had a lot of reservations as I heard it was “really depressing.” Only a few days ago I learned that the author committed suicide shortly after its publication. I read No Longer Human by Osamu Dazai as part of an online book club I’m sometimes in. Content Warning: This review and book contain mentions of assault, sexual abuse, death, suicide, misogyny, misanthropy, and possible narcissism. ![]()
