I'm a well read grad student who's bluntly honest about all things, although I try to be most honest about myself.

one of Murakami's weakest works

The Strange Library - Ted Goossen, Haruki Murakami

This was confusing, not so much in 'oh, wait, what happened?'   No, this was confusing as in 'why?   Why did that all happen?'

 

The last page is especially dreary, depressing, and confusing.   I was drawn to this book due to the use of illustrations, and the fact that I tend to love this author's work.   I figured it was great for the magical realism slot in Halloween bingo!

 

The best I can say about this is that it was short.   And well written.  I mean, technically, all the sentences were fine.   It was smooth, an easy read, but I just really was left floundering in trying to discover the point of it all  at the end. 

 

Sadly, I gave this to my father for a trip, I believe, and he warned me it wasn't great.  Still, I figured, maybe I'd like it?

 

Nope.   I did not.   Still, I have two bingo squares, so yay me?
