About this deal

Engulfed in the hot stench of the city, he found that the boundary between his inner and outer selves seemed to dissolve. The fetid air seeped in through his pores and soiled what was inside, while his simmering emotions leaked out of his body into the streets. Kirino began her writing career in 1984, when she started composing novels in the romantic genre. [6] However, these types of novels were not popular in Japan, so she found it difficult to make a living while writing them. [6] She also did not have a passion for writing romance novels and wanted to concentrate on works focusing on the psychological aspect of crimes. [6] She then turned her focus towards writing mystery novels in the early 1990s. [6] To date, she has written several short story collections and many novels, [7] and is now one of Japan's most popular writers. [8] She earned a law degree in 1974 from Seikei University, [2] and she dabbled in many fields of work before settling on being a writer. [3] For example, not knowing what she wanted to do in life, Kirino began working at the Iwanami Hall movie theater in her early twenties. [4] She soon discovered it wasn't right for her and just before her thirtieth birthday she started taking scriptwriting classes. [4] It wasn't until she was in her thirties that she began to seriously think about becoming a writer, [4] and it wasn't until her forties that she became popular as a writer. [5] Literary career [ edit ]

Como digo, los personajes son espectaculares, pero sobre todo Masako. Es de esos personajes femeninos tremendamente poderosos que se van a quedar conmigo para siempre. Loneliness often seems to be a theme in her work, as is the idea that materialism and money have corrupted modern Japanese life, especially where family and romantic relationships are concerned. [2] In fact, Out has been interpreted as "a cautionary tale of personal finance" [9] and "a grim portrayal of Japan's underclasses, of its female characters' lives, and of the social, sexual, and economic injustice that they face."

Poi l’autrice si è pentita e, forse per risolvere la trama gialla, ha trasferito la questione su un banale quanto improbabile piano di abissi dell’anima, lato oscuro e consimili stupidaggini così finendo per depotenziare proprio l’aspetto più interessante del romanzo. Las protagonistas son un grupo de mujeres que trabajan en el turno de noche en una fábrica de comida envasada. Una de ellas se ve implicada en un delito violento y la ayuda del grupo será imprescindible para solucionar el problema. Brings the mystery thriller to new levels of intensity and realism - OUT has great plot twists, vigour and an ending that would make Hannibal Lecter smile Library Journal What comes next are some cops, some crooks, some bribes and payoffs and some more opportunities in the disposal business. Warning to all that when it comes to the translated dialogue – well . . . . She worked as hard as anyone at the factory, and when she came home, she felt like a worn-out rag. What she wouldn’t give to lie down and sleep, even for just an hour. Massaging her own stiff, fleshy shoulders, she looked around at the dark, shabby house.

Fino a un certo punto è un romanzo notevolissimo che descrive con tanta minuziosa esattezza la condizione di malessere, al limite della negazione di sé, di certe donne da farti trovare perfettamente naturale che si associno in un atto che normalmente troveresti orrendo. Creo que lo más interesante de Natsuo Kirino es que, si bien, sus libros tienen diferentes temáticas, algunas con más suspense y otras con menos, siempre tienen un elemento común (o al menos en las novelas que yo he leído), el papel de mujer en la sociedad nipona con respecto al hombre. Hace un crítica de fondo importantísima, sobre como la mujer siempre es tratada en inferioridad con respecto al hombre, siempre se le exige más cosas con respecto a su conducta social o en el hogar. También hace un crítica bastante imporante al mundo laboral japonés con respecto a la contratación femenina y al trato que reciben estas en según que tipo de empresas.a b c d e f g h Scalise, Paul (Summer 2003).
