🔖A bestseller in fiction...

🔖this book tells the stories of the young Kafka Tamura, a bookish 15-year-old boy who runs away from his Oedipal curse, and Satoru Nakata, an old, disabled man with the uncanny ability to talk to cats. The book incorporates themes of music as a communicative conduit, metaphysics, dreams, fate, and the subconscious.

🔖I enjoyed reading both of the parallel stories but Nakata's story intrigued me more. Kafka was more like a overly sexualised teen.

🔖 I did not mark with pen/pencil/highlighter anywhere in the book.
