Produktinformationen "Nicht länger ein Mensch. Roman. Das Kultbuch aus Japan"

Neuübersetzung von Sabrina Wägerle

Im Familienkreis mimt ¿ba Y¿z¿ den Clown, doch es sind die Possen eines Verzweifelten, der seine schweren inneren Kämpfe hinter Sarkasmus verbirgt. Alle wahren Nöte und Gedanken kann er nur seinen Notizheften anvertrauen. In radikaler Offenheit erzählt dieser Roman-Klassiker von einer so gescheiten wie tief beschädigten jungen Seele auf der glücklosen Suche nach Orientierung und Halt. In Japan ist das Buch millionenfach verbreitet, dort entdeckt jede Lesergeneration aufs Neue die Aktualität dieser zeitlosen Geschichte.

  • - Der Kultklassiker ist ein Millionenseller und eines der meistverkauften Bücher in Japan- Dazais Meisterwerk ist ein Muss für Japan-Fans und für alle, die Kafka, Murakami oder Dostojewski lesen- 'Dazais letzter großer Roman ¿Gezeichnet¿ machte ihn endgültig zur Kultfigur der existentialistischen Jugend.' Deutschlandfunk- 'Dazais Verzweiflung hat etwas seltsam Anschmiegsames an sich. Die Offenheit seiner Figuren gegenüber ihrer Grausamkeit und ihrem Egoismus ... macht sie paradoxerweise verletzlich.' The New York Times

Osamu Dazai

Autor/in

Osamu Dazai

Der japanische Schriftsteller Ozamu Dazai (eigentlich Tsushima Sh¿ji; 1909-1948) wuchs als zehntes von elf Kindern auf. Er studierte französische Literatur an der Universität Tokio. 1933 veröffentlichte er seine erste Kurzgeschichte unter dem Pseudonym Ozamu Dazai. Der Freitod des Schriftstellers Akutagawa Ry¿nosuke (1927), den er sehr verehrte, prägte ihn wesentlich. Nach zahlreichen gescheiterten Selbstmordversuchen ertränkte Dazai sich im Juni 1948. Trotz seines kurzen Lebens hinterließ er ein umfangreiches Werk; indem er tief in die menschliche Psyche, Emotionen und existenzielle Konflikte eintaucht, durchaus auch mit Witz und Ironie, und gleichzeitig soziale Themen behandelt, ist dieses zeitlos und universell.

Early Light
Early Light offers three very different aspects of Osamu Dazai's genius: the title story relates his misadventures as a drinker and a family man in the terrible fire bombings of Tokyo at the end of WWII. Having lost their own home, he and his wife flee with a new baby boy and their little girl to relatives in Kofu, only to be bombed out anew. "Everything's gone," the father explains to his daughter: "Mr. Rabbit, our shoes, the Ogigari house, the Chino house, they all burned up," "Yeah, they all burned up," she said, still smiling."One Hundred Views of Mount Fuji," another autobiographical tale, is much more comic: Dazai finds himself unable to escape the famous views, the beauty once immortalized by Hokusai and now reduced to a cliche. In the end, young girls torment him by pressing him into taking their photo before the famous peak: "Goodbye," he hisses through his teeth, "Mount Fuji. Thanks for everything. Click."And the final story is "Villon's Wife," a small masterpiece, which relates the awakening to power of a drunkard's wife. She transforms herself into a woman not to be defeated by anything, not by her husband being a thief, a megalomaniacal writer, and a wastrel. Single-handedly, she saves the day by concluding that "There's nothing wrong with being a monster, is there? As long as we can stay alive."

The Setting Sun
"Dazai's best novel [...] focusing on a woman forced to deal with the consequences of heedless, Dazai-like behavior." --The New York Times "Carpenter conveys Dazai's discordant voices while sweeping away some of the rhetorical cobwebs of Donald Keene's 1956 translation and its dated introduction, making this the definitive edition of an epochal classic of postwar Japan for a new generation." —Library Journal A completely new translation of one of Osamu Dazai's best-loved novels, by award-winning translator, Juliet Winters Carpenter. The Setting Sun tells the story of Kazuko, a strong-willed young woman from an aristocratic family that has fallen into poverty since the war. The book follows Kazuko's journey as she and her family struggle to adapt to the harsh new conditions of a Japan destroyed by American fire-bombings. In addition to having to move from the city to the countryside, where she has to work in the fields to support her family, she has to deal with a divorce, her mother's illness, and the return of her drug-addicted brother from the army. An inspiring portrait of one woman's determination to survive in a society in the grip of a social and moral crisis, this classic work will appeal to those with an interest in modern Japanese literature as well as to those familiar with Osamu Dazai from the popular manga and anime series Bungo Stray Dogs, where he is the lead character.

The Flowers of Buffoonery
The Flowers of Buffoonery opens in a seaside sanatorium where Yozo Oba-the narrator of No Longer Human at a younger age-is being kept after a failed suicide attempt. While he is convalescing, his friends and family visit him, and other patients and nurses drift in and out of his room. Against this dispiriting backdrop, everyone tries to maintain a light-hearted, even clownish atmosphere: playing cards, smoking cigarettes, vying for attention, cracking jokes and trying to make each other laugh.While No Longer Human delves into the darkest corners of human consciousness, The Flowers of Buffoonery pokes fun at these same emotions: the follies and hardships of youth, of love and of self-hatred and depression. A glimpse into the lives of a group of outsiders in pre-war Japan, The Flowers of Buffoonery is a darkly humorous and fresh addition to Osamu Dazai's masterful and intoxicating oeuvre.

The Setting Sun
This powerful novel of a nation in social and moral crisis was first published by New Directions in 1956. Set in the early postwar years, The Setting Sun probes the destructive effects of war and the transition from a feudal Japan to an industrial society. The influence of Osamu Dazai's novel has made "people of the setting sun" a permanent part of the Japanese language, and his heroine, Kazuko, a young aristocrat who deliberately abandons her class, a symbol of the anomie which pervades so much of the modern world.

Good-Bye
Here to slake the unquenchable thirst of Dazai's legions of loyal fans are eleven works of short fiction and vignettes, most of which have never before appeared in English.Beginning with "Memories" (which tells a tale of teenage love, based on the autobiographical events that inspired Dazai's famed No Longer Human), and ending with "Good-Bye" (the chapters of a comic romance that the author left unfinished when he took his own life), the short works here show the range and breadth of an author best known for his meditations on squalor and despair. But there is laughter here too, as in "Tengu," a tongue-in-cheek critique of august hucksters of haiku. And there is also suspense on display: "A Bluff Illusion" presents a literary murder story in which a harmless prank escalates into a deadly pose. "A Warning on Worldly Pleasures" retells Saikaku's famous story about the temptation of a holy ascetic, and "A: Autumn" unfolds a quiver of epigrams (seemingly) drawn at random from the author's notes. All are masterfully translated by Ralph McCarthy.Spanning the breadth of Dazai's delightfully multifaceted, if tragically foreshortened, career, Good-Bye is a must-have for any Dazai fan.
