Took a while to finish this 500,000 worlds heavy piece. Maybe as the preface written by the same author says, this book isn’t perfect and has some flaws.
The over and over repeated same characters with the exact the same unchanged movements description. Maybe if the author want really refine this book it can be cut and reduced by half.
The differences between the characters are really small, the teenage girls talk and act like mature 40sth women and so does the 7 years old little girl.
But the most interesting part of this book is the aspect of some unconscious fetishes. Pedophile, cross dressing, prostitution, some strange obsession of armpits, nails, sweat and body hair, also can’t forget the inhibited homosexuality. Or maybe at some point it includes some non-binary sexual identity of the male characters.
It’s bold. Can see how hard the author wanted to set this book into a post colonialism trend in his very traditional oriental writing aesthetic.
