![]() First there was the little spurts of misogyny that kept popping up, and then there was May Kashahara, who is sort of a like a Lolita/Manic Pixie Dreamgirl monster. So that's probably not a good sign.Īnd of course, it turns out that Murakami is not a male novelist, he is a Male Novelist. ![]() I tried to start this review by summarizing the plot, but then I realized I couldn't. Murakami starts plot points, presents us with new mysteries and characters, and then he gets distracted by something and forgets to resolve the stuff he told us would be important. ![]() The story, while interesting, sort of meandered around and by the end, it seems to have forgotten where it was trying to go in the first place. The storytelling is great, and even if I had issues with some of the characters (okay, all of the female characters), they all managed to be consistently compelling. ![]() I wanted to like this book more than I actually did. ![]()
