>The protagonist is referred to in the story as Kochan, which is the diminutive of the author's real name: Kimitake. Being raised during Japan's era of right-wing militarism and Imperialism, he struggles from a very early age to fit into society.
ok...
>A weak homosexual, Kochan is kept away from boys his own age as he is raised, and is thus not exposed to the norm. His isolation likely led to his future fascinations and fantasies of death, violence, and same-sex intercourse.[5]

The call

I'm looking for something like Prometheus. Something about humanity finding evidence they were created by some alien civilization. Questions and wonder who or what they are,
an expedition to the unknown, ... Something that captures that feeling

>“What I wanted was to die among strangers, untroubled, beneath a cloudless sky. And yet my desire differed from the sentiments of that ancient Greek who wanted to die under the brilliant sun. What I wanted was some natural, spontaneous suicide. I wanted a death like that of a fox, not yet well versed in cunning, that walks carelessly along a mountain path and is shot by a hunter because of its own stupidity…”

I really wish the victorian and Edwardian novels and short stories that were or contained werewolves were better named.
The vast majority I can think of are called shit like The werewolf, or Book of Werewolves, or [insert location name] werewolf. That kind of thing.
After a bit of web search I think this would probably best fit the bill.
Terrifying Transformations: An Anthology of Victorian Werewolf Fiction, 1838-1896.

I am familiar with most of the stories contained within, so you are in for a good time.

Anyway here is my tangentially related picture to keep things going.
