"I thought about my own mortality, about what I had done with my life until now. Reaching out my hands to steal, I had turned my back on everything, rejected community, rejected wholesomeness and light. I had built a wall arround myself and lived by sneaking into the gaps in the darkness of life". 

pg. 113


Seperti biasa ya, literatur Jepang dengan cara dan kekhasannya sendiri membuat pembaca merenungkan hal2 yg rumit untuk dipahami dan ditelaah. 

This book is more than a criminal fiction but closer to literary fiction, how psychology's and social aspect from the life of pickpocket person, with a bunch of philosophy about the living, death, morality and fate. 

Dan, selain sosok protagonis yg nasibnya menyedihkan, kita juga diperlihatkan gmn pandangan seorang kriminal (laten) memandang sebuah kehidupan yg dijamin bikin kamu kesel sendiri baca petuah2 nya.
