Why are we hiring a detective now lol classics are always such Turkish telenovelas

obsessed with the writing in this

So immersive so far, I can feel the character's thoughts yes, but also there's a scene of time and place. Lines where Mishima describes a specific scene, yet it never goes out of its way to "expose" itself or to overexplain. I can see the images vividly in my head, yet its abstracted enough (detailed, but not so much) so my brain interprets its as something more surreal, and it explodes in a world of wonder.

Yo creo que si Noburo tuviera una compañera de clase a la que sus padres dejasen hacerse las californianas a los 13 años el chaval sería perfectamente normal

Ursula’s translations are stunning, reminder to always read Japanese literature in German

Where are we going with this ahah I’m concerned cause I know my Japanese classics 😅

Reading this a fight but the sunk cost has set in so give me another 3 months
