Earthlings by Sayaka Murata
3.0

2.5. The first half was really promising- her infantilisation of the world and abuse felt valid and real when we were seeing it through a child’s perspective, but the second half kind of under cut all that with how detached and absurdist it became. Like just so bizarre and deranged at the end, I guess it was fun how committed she was to the bit but my disbelief struggled to be that suspended.
