[DeepL Translation - needs review] When my fifteenth birthday arrived, I left home and went to a distant, unknown city to live in the corner of a small library. It wasn't just cash that I took from my father's study when I left home. An old lighter, a folding knife, a pocket light, and a pair of dark sky blue Levo sunglasses. A photo of my sister and I side by side when we were little. ......

Stopped reading 1/3 of the way through, reviewing for content warnings
I feel a bit bad giving this three stars as I was liking it up until now! There are three content warnings I will give:
- Animal cruelty
- Sexual themes
- Incest...ish. None actually took place, but sexual commentary in that vein took place.

Great & very strange read
I have loved reading this book, and a lot of that is to do with the writing style. There are some slightly more tricky sections (some that are written in the style of military reports) but in general the amount of unknown vocab was manageable and the writing style very fluid and straight forward, making this feel like a comparatively easier read to other books I was reading at the same time. As the other review has noted, you have to be prepared for some Murakami signature nonsense, ie weird sex
