I think I'd have to reread this before determining a rating, because I feel pretty meh *shrug* about it, but I think a reread would reveal deeper details about the story that you can't catch on the first read.

What a bizarre little story. I liked it and might even read it again before I return it to the library.

I'm pretty sure that everything in this slim volume is symbolic or representative or allegorical or something along those lines. It will take a little digging on my part to nail some of it down, I'm sure. The story is completely absurd, which I like. I don't know if there are different versions of this, but mine has a bunch of vibrant illustrations that sometimes matched exactly what was going on in the text and sometimes (seemed) not so much

Anyway, this was a fun literary puzzle for me to poke at before I take it back to its home. I'm glad I checked to see what Murikami my library had today.
