Somehow despite the short length, this book felt just a bit too long to me - when it hit it was incisive and really made me think, but other parts felt a little pointless. Overall good if you want to be depressed about your job.

Time and reality melt at different points in this, just as familiar conventions blend into the bizarre. Oyamada uses the weird and uncanny to reveal very real elements of modern corporate culture and capitalism. It was very strange and captivating. I'm definitely interested to read more from this author.
