A review by charlywarlywoo
First Person Singular by Haruki Murakami

Did not finish book. Stopped at 31%.
I’d heard lots about Murakami and had always looked forward to reading one of his books but upon getting half way through this one I actually couldn’t believe how one dimensional and misogynistic his characters are. It felt like the women were personality-less objects whose only goal was to slightly advance the story. I think I’ll pass on any of his other novels. This one has left a sour taste in my mouth. Thanks but no thanks.
