Rumor of a rumor of a rumor
Description
Book Introduction
Do you sympathize with the pain of her death due to rumors?
After 12 years of writing, Jay Asher became a bestselling author with his debut work.
In this work, which was a New York Times bestseller for 64 consecutive weeks as a debut work, the author chose the themes of rumor and suicide.
In a complex society that demands quick decisions, and especially in a cyber world where anonymity prevails and responsibility is lost, rumors overwhelm the truth.
And Hannah chose suicide.
The male protagonist, Clay, receives a package from an unknown sender.
Inside the parcel are seven cassette tapes.
The tape contains the voice of the female protagonist, Hannah, who committed suicide two weeks ago.
"Hi, everyone, it's Hannah Baker.
"I'm still breathing inside the cassette tape."
Clay is shocked after listening to the tape.
Hannah Baker, the first love I held in my heart.
First love insists.
Thirteen people who had to listen to the tape were connected to his death.
What truth do thirteen people not know? Hannah's story begins with a rumor about her first kiss.
The author cleverly interweaves Hannah's story with Clay's complex emotions.
Until the middle of the book, you won't be able to put the book down because you'll be wondering what Clay, who had a crush on Henna, did, and what unintentional negative influence Clay had on Henna's life.
But after you've grasped the full story, you'll be left with the exquisite aftereffect of being surprised that the author didn't waste a single sentence.

Into the book
I don't think any of you meant to harm me.
There may be times when you don't know what you did wrong.
Even though it was something he did.
...
Everyone, please prepare yourselves mentally.
I'm about to tell you my life story.
To be precise, to reveal why my life ended.
Because you who are listening to this tape are the ones who fall into that category.
...
I haven't forgotten.
The only thing left for me is memory.
That's why I hate it.
If only my memory could fade sometimes, we'd all be a little happier.

I'm sorry to her who passed away because of rumors.

But the power of the false image created by the rumor was strong.
The rumor grew and spread like a snowball.
Buried in a snowball, she had no choice but to make a final choice.
Suicide chose her.
