Das Buch war leider absolut nichts für mich. Ich lese gerne weirden stuff, aber abgesehen von Transphobie, Ableismus, usw. finde ich vieles in dieser Geschichte unnötig oder unsinnig. Vielleicht versteh ich einfach die Komplexität eines Meisterwerks nicht, aber so oder so hat es mir nicht sonderlich gefallen - weder der Schreibstil (keine Ahnung ob das vielleicht an der Übersetzung liegt) noch der tatsächliche Inhalt.

Having finished this book I don't quite know what to make of it. I think I enjoyed it, it certainly kept me reading. I found it slow but intriguing. I also however felt there was unnecessary overuse of violence and sexual content. I was wondering how it was all going to come together in the end but I felt I got to the end and had no idea what happened. I think I need some time to dwell on the book and what I think of it.

Twórczość Murakamiego porwałaby mnie (może) w gimnazjum. Teraz już nie jest mi potrzebna. Tobie prawdopodobnie też nie. Więc komu?
