This story is told so well with a special sort of realism I felt like I was hearing a true narrative from someone. I've never read a Japanese novel like this before. However it needs to be read rather carefully as our narrator may be in the middle of a business meeting in 1966 and suddenly we are back in 1941 or 1943 and then a paragraph or three later back to his present. Memories come to him and we experience them in his real-time. There is also a rather abrupt switch in the middle of the book to a secondary character having a drunken jag.
Haruki Murakami apparently admires this author but this isn't a story like one by Murakami. There is a long introduction written by the translator that helps explains things about the author and the setting of the book, although some of it was "over my head".… (altro)
