About this product
Product Information
The novella that first propelled Dazai into the literary elite! The English translaiton has sold over 35,000 copies. Essentially the start of Dazai's career, Schoolgirl gained notoriety for its ironic and inventive use of language. Now it illuminates the prevalent social structures of a lost time, as well as the struggle of the individual against them - a theme that occupied Dazai's life both personally and professionally. This new translation preserves the playful language of the original and offers the reader a new window into the mind of one of the greatest Japanese authors of the 20th century.

Reviews
"Concise enough to be read in one sitting, "Schoolgirl" combines Dazai's familiar themes of melancholy, alienation and despair with levity and humor, the contradictions of the teenage narrator's thoughts drawing us into a tale whose lightness and uncertainty are virtues." -- The Japan Times, "Dazai's writing is concise, and the evocative despair cuts like an X-Acto knife. The expressed sentiments are also universal enough that when Dazai is quoted out of context, his sentences read like depressive bromides." -- Dirt, "Narrated by the eponymous girl, the book is an unsung, prewar Japanese Catcher in the Rye" -- The Guardian
