A review by nill
Sahilde Kafka by Hüseyin Can Erkin, Haruki Murakami
2.0
[2.5/5 STARS] I'm surprised by how much I've grown to dislike a 15-year-old, something I never expected, but here we are…
I really like the eerie aura the book had and the writing style. Also, the book having two different points of view, each with a distinct style, were refreshing. But sadly, this was it. I didn’t really like the characters, nor I resonated with them. Although I pretty much liked Crow, Nakata and Sakura, and Oshima & Hoshino a little bit, the others didn’t really mean anything to me. Not to mention the objectifying women, the terrible representation of feminism The prophecy was also out of pocket. If you ask me whether I'd consider picking up another Murakami book in the future, my response would be a definite no. Regrettably, I couldn’t like the book at all. Nonetheless, it did manage to satisfy my curiosity about Murakami and his pen.
Plus I've made a promise to myself to never complete long books I don't enjoy ever again.
