I kind of set my expectations too high and was disappointed with the misogyny , the author treats women like theyre a monolith and another thing that made me feel disgusted was the chapter revolving Yoshiko.
Yozo kind of felt like an autistic child especially in the beginning of the book , he kept masking and being scared he’d get “found out” . I feel like his insecurities and struggles might resonate with some readers which is one of the few positives of this novel.

Не знаю, як видати власну думку щодо цього твору. Я намагалася, але то або надто зачепило мене, або зовсім ні. Я. не. розумію.
«Greed did not cover it, nor did vanity. Nor was it simply a combination of lust and greed. I wasn't sure what it was, but I felt that there was something inexplicable at the bottom of human society which was not reducible to economics.»
