Daniel Lukes and 27 other people liked cherelle's review of All The Lovers In The Night: "did i read the same book as everyone else or am i heartless? clunky dialogues, awkward metaphors, and superficial as a whole, felt rather tokenistic and a chore at times... i get the intentional narrative style that meanders and is inherently detached" Read more of this review »

Daniel Lukes and 53 other people liked Kinga's review of All the Lovers in the Night: "I'm really not sure if I liked this book. The main character was, of course, infuriating and the dialogues were mind-numbing. I don't know if something was lost in translation, or Kawakami is just terrible at writing dialogue, or maybe people in Japa" Read more of this review »

“Most are desperate boys yearning to salve a deep wound. Insignificance. Worthlessness. Social invisibility. This boy has dreamed and prayed, for so long, of someone loving him, noticing him, above all respecting him. Not that he deserves it. He sure doesn’t respect himself. When hope runs dry, prayers unanswered, a fraction of these boys kill themselves. That ends the pain but doesn’t mend the wound. Suicide confirms their pathetic status. But a thunderstroke, desolation of a community, shock across the country—that rates awe. Respect. He is heralded as a mastermind. Everything he craved.”
― Dave Cullen, Columbine
