loved the bits where tawada's own voice (on language, the self and identity in relation)seem to b coming thru, but not much else :[ think since i didn't particularly like any of the characters Except maybe susanoo a lot of this stuff was wayyy less interesting here than when i was hearing it from her directly in interviews n essays, or even her other works
