nothing hits as close to my heart as japanese literature about loneliness. at only 20 i feel my life heading in the same direction as fuyuko’s. the melancholy quietness of her day to day, and finding comfort in someone n not knowing what to do with it.
when mitsutsuka doesn’t show up on her birthday, i felt how painful that wld be, how hopeless the future wld feel knowing she’d be alone like that forever.
maybe i shld make some more friends, but who’s to say it wld make any difference?

Beautifully written and the way the words describe. The locations and activities are mesmerizing yet book is sad and dreary and goes nowhere in many ways. It's depressing and the characters are constantly depressed and is much alcoholism.. and the memories of rape scene her first and last time having sex and it's overall depressing... And nothing evolves and these people are living lives where they do nothing but work and drink and repeat that. A state of ennui.
