4.0

this was a challenging read for me, but i did enjoy it. i do wish we could’ve seen at least a bit of interaction or the paths of kafka and nakata finally crossing. this was a dense book with a lot to unpack, and i almost wish i could’ve read it in a classroom setting with a teacher or professor guiding me through it to add to the reading experience. enjoyable read though.
