Oh, Osamu Dazai's 'The Setting Sun' is such a hauntingly beautiful novel—I get chills just thinking about its melancholic elegance. If you're hunting for the audiobook, you're in luck! Platforms like Audible, Google Play Audiobooks, and even YouTube sometimes have it floating around. I stumbled upon a narrated version on Audible last year, and the voice actor absolutely nailed the somber tone of post-war Japan. The way they delivered Kazuko’s internal monologues made the existential dread feel almost tactile.
That said, availability can vary by region due to licensing. If you hit a wall, check out Scribd or Libby—they often partner with local libraries for free borrows. I remember borrowing a digital copy through my library’s app once, though the narration wasn’t as immersive as Audible’s. Pro tip: if you’re into physical media, some secondhand bookstores sell CD audiobook versions, which I’ve seen pop up on eBay. Whatever route you take, diving into Dazai’s world via audio is a uniquely intimate experience; the prose feels even more poetic when spoken aloud.

My father is the High God of the Sun, and my mother is the Empress of the Moon.
Ever since I was born, they’ve had two suitors lined up for me.
First, there’s Sol, the God of Dawn. He rules the Temple of Light and controls everything warm and bright in this world.
Then there’s Karnos, the Shadow Sovereign. He rules the Dark Realm with a power so absolute it makes the other gods tremble.
On the day of my Millennium Awakening, whichever man I choose as my husband will become the Supreme Ruler of the entire Divine Realm.
Without a second thought, I chose Karnos. The crowd went dead silent.
Everyone was losing their minds because I’d been head-over-heels for Sol since we were kids. I’d even sworn an oath that I’d never marry anyone but him.
But what they don't know is that in my past life, I did marry Sol. And on our very first night as husband and wife, he crawled into bed with my maid, Lilith.
When the news broke, Lilith was banished to the mortal world.
Sol never forgave me for that. He blamed me for her exile. After I got pregnant, he started bringing a different goddess home every single night, forcing me to watch while they were intimate right in front of me.
It got worse. On the day I went into labor, he intentionally sent away every single healing deity. He ignored my screams and pleas for help, leaving me and my unborn child to die in absolute agony.
So, now that I’ve been reborn, I’ve decided to let him have his "true love." I’m walking away and choosing Karnos instead.
But there’s one thing I didn’t count on...
Sol remembered everything, too.
A vampire of noble birth, Dawn, is promised to marry Seth and travels through the cold forests to the promising ceremony. She doesn't want to marry Seth but has to choose between her clan's survival and staying alive or making it on her own. On her way to her new home, the carriage is ambushed, and she is tied to a tree and left to die being burned alive by the sun. A monster finds her and she's terrified, she's never seen any creature like it before!
It's name is Ray...a terrifying monster that can walk in the light that calls itself a human! What sort of terrifying beast could do such a thing? Dawn is afraid but yet somehow something about Ray keeps calling out to her no matter how dangerous he seems.

Finding 'The Book of the New Sun' audiobook can be quite the adventure! I stumbled upon it while browsing through various audiobook platforms. Audible is definitely a go-to for audiobooks, and they usually have an expansive selection, so I checked there first. You can often find special promotions or a free trial if you haven’t signed up yet. I also discovered it on Google Play Books, where you can either purchase it or listen to a sample. Another option is to check out Libby or OverDrive through your library; you can borrow audiobooks digitally, which is super convenient!
I also heard that organizations like Librivox have volunteers reading public domain works, so it’s worth a glance in case there's a version available there. The community on Reddit sometimes shares links or tips about where to find hard-to-get titles, too. It's a great place to connect with fellow fans who might share the same obsession as you!
Although some options might vary based on your region, don't hesitate to explore a few sources. Audiobooks are such a fun way to experience literature, especially for a complex and rich story like 'The Book of the New Sun.' Let me tell you—it’s perfect for both long commutes and cozy evenings at home!
Oh, 'The Setting Sun' by Osamu Dazai is such a hauntingly beautiful novel—I remember being completely absorbed by its melancholic atmosphere. If you're looking for free online options, Project Gutenberg is always my first stop for classic literature. They don’t have Dazai’s works yet, but you might find fan translations on sites like Scribd or Internet Archive if you dig a little. Just be cautious with unofficial sources; sometimes the translations can be hit or miss.
Another route is checking university library portals—many offer free access to digital collections. I stumbled upon 'No Longer Human' through a friend’s alumni login once! For something more modern, apps like Libby might have it if your local library has a digital copy. Honestly, though, if you fall in love with the book, consider buying a physical or official e-book to support the publishers keeping these gems alive.
I own the paperback, but I'm out of the house all day for work, so I hunt down audiobooks for my commute. A few months back I was specifically looking for 'The Rising Sun'—couldn’t find it on Audible, Chirp, or Libro.fm. I even tried searching the author's name directly. It doesn't seem to be produced yet, which is a bummer because the premise sounds perfect for audio.
Sometimes these things take a while, especially for novels from smaller presses or independent authors. I ended up putting an alert on Audible for the title, just in case it pops up later. In the meantime, I borrowed the ebook from my library's OverDrive. The lack of an audiobook made me appreciate the text more, I guess—noticed some descriptive details I might have glossed over while listening.
Hopefully they'll get a narrator on board soon; a gritty, atmospheric read like that could really come alive with the right voice.
