challenging reflective tense slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

I could only handle this book in small doses. Its dream-like and illogical quality was anxiety-inducing, but I was fascinated to behold Ishiguro’s craft and effortless intentionality at the same time.
