3.5
Murakami is a wierd dude who only write women to give sex partners to his male characters. The story is sometimes tedious but in general interesting, minus the moments when something ludicrously illegal and amoral happens and everyone is okay with it. This makes the message of the book very muddy
Graphic: Adult/minor relationship, Body horror, Incest, Rape, Sexual content, Blood, and Death of parent
Moderate: Sexism and Transphobia
Women are useless and a transperson is used as a plot device ?
