Out by Natsuo Kirino
A young mother cracks and strangles her philandering, gambling husband then confesses her crime to Masako, the closest of her colleagues. Masako agrees to assist her and seeks the help of the co-workers to dismember and dispose of the body. This story shows how the desperate desire for freedom can make the most ordinary person do the unimaginable.
Natsuo Kirino, born in 1951, quickly established a reputation in Japan as one of a rare breed of crime writer whose work goes well beyond the conventional crime novel. This fact has been demonstrated by her winning not only Japan's top mystery award, for Out, but one of its major literary awards, the Naoki Prize for Soft Cheeks. Several of her books have also been turned into movies. Out is the first of her novels to appear in English.
