Description

Back of the Book

Suwa, a charcoal burner’s daughter, lives together with her father in a small village at a foot of a mountain so remote it doesn’t even appear on maps.

Slowly she comes to realize the dark futility of her life, leading to a strange and elliptical transformation…

Dazai depicts the adolescent awakening to death and the desire to escape through this quiet and ominous tale.
