 I'm not sure I understand every part of this book, but I'm also not sure I'm meant too. It's so wonderfully surreal and dreamy, with a very strange disconnected vibe that genuinely made me want to keep reading. I might revisit it to find things I missed on the first read through! I would definitely reccomend to people that enjoy Murakami novels, it's got the same otherwordly feeling in parts.
