グッド・バイ (Good-Bye)

グッド・バイ (Good-Bye)

by Osamu Dazai

Dazai's final unfinished work, "Good-Bye," is a tragicomedy that explores themes of love, loss, and the absurdity of life. Set against the backdrop of post-war Japan, the story follows the narrator's turbulent relationship with a woman he deeply loves, intertwined with his struggles with alcoholism and depression. Dazai's signature wit and self-deprecating humor are present throughout, but ultimately the work is a poignant reflection on the fragility of life and the search for meaning in a world marked by despair.
