Book excerpt: TEACHER OF DARKNESS Meet the most melancholy high school teacher in Japan: Nozomu Itoshiki, whose fashion sense is strictly nineteenth-century, whose personal goal is self-annihilation, and whose signature phrase is "I'm in despair!" He's similar to Franz Kafka and Jean-Paul Sartre-if Kafka and Sartre had had to deal with a classroom of short-skirted, lovesick students. And to make matters worse, Itoshiki's family wants him to get married. Forget the bride, here comes the gloom! The first translated work by Japan's most savage satirist, Koji Kumeta!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teachers are supposed to inspire the younger generation to follow their dreams and achieve great things. However, our hero, Nozomu is not that teacher. Nozomu's probably the most depressive man in Japan--so depressive, in fact, that every little setback in life inspires yet another suicide attempt! But then why is being in Nozomu's class such a blast? Is it his quirky and endearing students? The bizarre adventures he leads them on? Or is there something after all to "the Power of Negative Thinking"? A DARKLY OFFBEAT COMEDY BY KOJI KUMETA Have you ever noticed the "reverse-boy-who-cried-wolf" phenomenon, where normally serious people tell jokes and nobody gets them?? Are recent fashion trends in Japan sophisticated artistic expression, or just gaudy over-decoration?? In volume 9, Zetsubou-sensei loses his job, his freedom, and... his glasses!?? And to top it off, the students of class 2-F are informed that they will all be held back in the eleventh grade... again. Includes special extras after the story!

On an unnamed island, objects are disappearing: first hats, then ribbons, birds, roses. . . . Most of the inhabitants are oblivious to these changes, while those few able to recall the lost objects live in fear of the draconian Memory Police, who are committed to ensuring that what has disappeared remains forgotten. When a young writer discovers that her editor is in danger, she concocts a plan to hide him beneath her f loorboards, and together they cling to her writing as the last way of preserving the past.
