I DNF’d this book at page 57. I did skip over some parts, particularly chapters where the author talked about Wittgenstein. I was pretty excited about this book and really liked the idea behind it, but I couldn’t get into it. I think this book would’ve been better split into two books, even though I understand the connection between Wittgenstein and the authors experiences with language and Japan. It just wasn’t for me. Maybe I’ll attempt it again at a later date, but for now I’ll return it to the library.
