私が興味を持った英語版の人間失格のぺーじです。(63ページ)
日本語版の人間失格の47ページです。
I soon came to understand that drink, tobacco
and prostitutes were all excellent means of dissipating
(even for a few moments) my dread of human beings.
I came even to feel that if I had to sell every last
possession to obtain these means of escape, it would
he well worth it.
I never could think of prostitutes as human beings
or even as woman.
They seemed more like imbeciles or lunatics.
But in their arms I felt absolute security.
I could sleep soundly.
It was pathetic how utterly devoid of greed they really were.
And perhaps because they felt for me something like an affinity
for their kind, these prostitutes always showed me a
natural friendliness which never became oppressive.
Friendliness with no ulterior motive, friendliness
stripped of high-pressure salesmanship, for someone
who might never come again.
Some nights I saw these imbecile, lunatic prostitutes
with the halo of Mary.
