Aerith always believed she was an ordinary mortal-clumsy, geeky, and completely out of place in the world. But on the eve of her 18th birthday, she discovers a shocking truth: she's no ordinary girl, but the long-lost daughter of the Fates, destined to rule the Underworld as Hades' queen. Thrown into the realm of gods and monsters, Aerith must learn to navigate her new life among immortal beings, where loyalty and power shift like the winds. Tutored by gods, pursued by ancient rivalries, and bound to Hades-a brooding, powerful god who's been waiting for her for centuries-Aerith faces the daunting challenge of learning how to rule an entire realm while still figuring out how to be herself. Can she rise to the challenge of ruling alongside the enigmatic Hades, or will the forces that oppose her destiny tear their fated union apart? With humor, heart, and a touch of magic, Aerith must learn the ropes of royalty and love in a world where even the gods themselves play by their own rules. How to be a Queen is a fun and fresh take on Greek mythology, blending romance, adventure, and self-discovery into an unforgettable journey through the immortal world.

Sebuah novel besar karya penulis kenamaan Jepang Osamu Dazai yang menceritakan seorang lelaki yang merasa gagal menjadi manusia dan menganggap hidupnya adalah sesuatu rasa malu yang besar, bernama Yozo Oba. Buku ini menjelaskan bagaimana ia bisa menganggap dirinya adalah sebuah kegagalan besar dengan segala kesuraman penjelasan cerita khas Osamu Dazai. Novel ini sendiri merupakan salah satu karya literatur Jepang yang berpengaruh dalam pergerakan sastra Jepang secara keseluruhan dan sudah berulang-ulang kali dicetak ulang di Jepang dengan peminatnya yang secara mengejutkan merupakan remaja dan kalangan muda. Saya kemudian tertarik membaca dan menerjemahkan novel ini karena seringkali saya lihat dan saksikan bagaimana karya Dazai memiliki pengaruh yang amat sangat besar dalam budaya pop Jepang saat ini. Tidak jarang dalam karya-karya populer Jepang saat ini, yang tidak hanya menceritakan kebahagiaan hidup namun juga menceritakan betapa sulit dan suramnya hal yang harus kita alami dalam hidup, mereferensi karya-karya atau kata-kata Dazai. Pada akhirnya, semoga hasil terjemahan ini bisa memuaskan hasrat membaca teman-teman semua yang menggiati karya literatur atau pop Jepang, maupun yang asing dengannya sama sekali =========================== Manusia Gagal Karya asli: "Ningen Shikkaku" karya Dazai Osamu Terjemahan Inggris: "No Longer Human" oleh Donald Keene Disclaimer: I will not take any profit from this translation.
