I honestly just didn’t get it and I was not entertained. I finished the book only because I was reading it for a reading challenge. It wasn’t until the translator’s note that I began to sort of understand the intention behind the stories but still, the themes were darker and more horrifying than I was expecting/ wanting to read.
