This is a strange book. Each section almost feels like a different story, yet they’re all connected completely. I wish it was structured differently, because I feel this would have made the pace quicker. The story is so interesting, but after finishing a section, I didn’t not run to start the next as it felt like one story was done and I was beginning another. Either way, the writing/translation is beautiful and there are many memorable moments. The characters are also really well realised. I recommend this book for people who like slow character studies!
