A review by adithihebbar
The Woman in the Dunes by Kōbō Abe

3.0

like, I get the point of this book but my reading experience itself was a little underwhelming, especially in the middle. many people in the reviews have said how the writing creeped them out and I kind of see why, but I was just bored to tears (im done with sand). to be fair most books that are supposed to be "creepy" (or something similar) have just made me impatient, and like I said, bored me to tears, so there is that. apart from that, I appreciate the reason why the book exists and the point it is trying to make.
