A review by irenealgi
A True Novel by Minae Mizumura
5.0
This is the sort of book that's so long it feels like it's never going to end, but when it finally does you want to start reading it all over again.
I was blown away by the mastery behind it, the way Mizumura handles such a complex story, both on the psychological level, as the relationships between the characters are very nuanced, but also in terms of the structure of the narrative itself.
Absolutely brilliant. It's too soon to say this will probably be my favourite novel of the year (especially since I already know what I will be reading and there's so much proficiency in that TBR), but it could very well be.
