This is my third Murakami book, the first being awful and the second, redeeming his writing enough to pick another one right away.
- I misunderstood and assumed this to be a short story rather than a collection of short stories (should’ve read the blurb)
- His attention to detail( specifically the explicit descriptions) is really off-putting
- First-person P.O.V may not really be his forte

I’m beginning to make sense of it I guess, I take back my initial thoughts… I guess the translators also make a difference? I seem to enjoy Jay Rubin’s translated ones better.
