A review by aliway
Heaven by Mieko Kawakami

4.0

I suffered a whirlwind of emotions reading this book. Kojima and the nameless narrator referred to as 'eyes' by his bullies, are relentlessly tormented in ways I couldn't conjure even if I tried my hardest. Heaven is brutal and heartbreaking with raw emotions on full display. The pivotal, shattering moment in this book lingers in my mind constantly.
