The first part of the book really hooked me, but I kind of lost interest in the middle. Still, it's a great book, and the ending shook me

Two novels in one. The first one is great, with memorable characters and a plaintive sense of real emotional and social depth undergirding a strong plot. The second one is fine, porting over characters but flipping to new concerns that are maybe overwritten or overthought. I'll be on the lookout for more Kawakami!
