If not for one chapter, the book could have been a masterpiece
The winner of the Japanese Book Seller Awards 2020 and has been made into a movie recently, does it lives up to the hype?
The book is very well written. I really love Its depiction of the complexity of human emotion, it successfully evokes that eerie and uncomfortable feeling you often get when reading a 純文学. Sadly it was ruined by one chapter, which is chapter 4. We get to know one character's back story (don't worry this is not a spoiler, it's pretty obvious judging from the chapter name) and
