A review by youngthespian42
Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami

3.0

2.5 rounded up to a 3. The language in this novel is truly moving at times but the magical realism stuff just kinda happens? Also there a lot of sexual content that is really bizzare and feels shoe horned in for no reason. I listened on audio so it was easy to speed up and not focus on parts that dragged but overall the experience was enjoyable. I think if I had been reading it I might have put it down due to the tedium of it all.
