I felt like I need to re-read this immediately after finishing it. Maybe the message was too obscure (or too obvious) but I have a nagging feeling like there was something major that I missed. I didn't get a final overall message from this book.
That's my only nit-pick. Otherwise this book was fantastic, well worth your time. I finished it in an hour, and it will make you reflect on your own life and the people around you. Which, any book that does that deserves praise.

Charming story on the re-read. This translation is from 2000.
