Try to keep in mind that the character Yozo is intentionally flawed and that his journey through life is not necessarily meant to be an admirable one. I personally perceived the instances of misogyny and toxicity in this book as shortcomings of the character rather than messages we are meant to internalize as valid.

Overall, this was an intriguing story about what it means to be human, and how sometimes our worst enemies are ourselves.
