There were actually many things I liked about this book. I related a lot from the content of what Dazai put, specifically around hiding emotions for different reasons. But the most notable thing I enjoyed was how random it was. In a sense, it's about Dazai's life, specifically like how No Longer Human is, and the author/main character is supposed to be him, in mid-sentence in the book, he'll rewrite it, or actually tell the reader to forget what was written down, as if this book is simply just a diary.

Master of caricature! I think I'm finally losing patience with myself. Is this a dime novel or what? I had hoped for this scene to serve as something of an antidote for my tense nerves, and for yours too, dear reader, but that last bit was way too cheesy. If this book does become a classic - goodness, have I lost my mind?
