A review by aynsrtn
People From My Neighbourhood by Hiromi Kawakami

lighthearted fast-paced

3.75

Bizzare, quirk, utterly mesmerizing, and maybe little bit absurd, haha. That's the feeling after I finished this book. 

There are thirty six short stories in this book. Four till six pages for one short story—so short. So, some stories hits but more of missed. Some are so realistic, but also some are magical or maybe surrealist. 

My fav stories: 
 1) the tenement
 2) grandpa shadows
 3) the empress 

The neighbourhood feels so warm and magical in the same time 💐
