我的男人

Rate this book
優雅卻總帶著落魄寒酸的腐野淳悟,
在二十五歲的年輕時期,收養了在九歲時因震災失去家人而成為孤兒的我,小花。
越過漆黑如墨的樹海,來到偏遠的北方紋別小鎮,
從這一刻起,我們成為渴望並愛戀彼此的父女,
就算是犯下殺人罪行,
我們也要一同墜入這個世界的裂縫、墜入黑色汪洋深處。

不夠、還要再多一些……
肉體兩相糾纏之際,湧現如此直深入骨與肉的飢渴。
唯有爸爸能滿足我,唯有我能撫慰爸爸。
誰是保護者、誰是年幼稚子,
在這一刻已交混不清。

然而梅雨季節來臨,長大成人的我將嫁為人婦,與化為白骨也不願分開的爸爸道別。
拋下黑暗不堪又珍視的過往,離開瀰漫罪惡異臭的公寓,
斬斷緊密相連又教人憎恨的父女之情。
當我再次回到曾經相互依偎的房間裡,
不見了,爸爸消失了,屍體也已不存在……
但我知道,我們會繼續一起逃亡下去吧。

共感はできないけど、やってることは読んでて気持ちのいいものではないけど、この暗さが私は好きだった。
それにしても殺人犯してるのにそれが大したことと思えないほど他の部分のインパクトがありすぎた。

There would be two types of people: a small group of individuals including myself who praise this book and call it a masterpiece, and the rest would be absolutely disgusted by it.

It starts us off with Hana in 2008, on the eve of her marriage to Yoshiro. She meets her adopted father Jungo on a Ginza streetcorner one rainy night so they can go together to have dinner with her fiancé. Her very first words are “my man was walking this way”.
We find out soon enough that they have a sexual relationship, although the details of that are not made clear at first. But this is a rabbit hole of a book, pushing backward through time, and with each step back in time, we learn more about the terrible nature of their relationship.
Sakuraba peers into the head of a victim of childhood abuse and pulls out the threads of gaslighting and need and abandonment and desire that wind together and lead to a child trying at all costs to protect their abuser and stay with them because that is the only love they have every known and if it were to collapse, they too would be destroyed. It’s disturbing to read and at times grotesque.

Consider this your content warning for assault and abuse of all kinds. This is a dark book from start to finish. Don’t reach for it if that is the kind of thing that sends you to a dark place.

Is this a fate that all these best-selling authors of "New Era" (please understand "recession era") don't know how to write in Japanese?

さかのぼっていく時間と交差される視点の中、すさまじい存在感が貫通する。
