📖

I love love love this story and the way the author explored the topics of gender roles/relationships, women’s bodies, and loneliness. such an intimate book and I love her writing style, wish I could emulate that sort of intimacy in my writing too!!!!

Heaven by mieko kawakami

It's a teensy bit over (175 pages) but it's a spectacular read! i love kawakami's style and this book just draws you in so if you haven't read it already i really recommend it!

All the lovers in the night

By Keiko Kawakami 221 pages, its about a girl struggling with loneliness and mental health issues. It touches on issues of alcoholism. Its sosoososo good!!! Its not plot heavy, it may seem boring to people since not a lot happens during it. It focuses more on her and her lonliness, but its one of my favorites!!

Butter by asako yuzuki

The best work of fiction (inspired by truth) that I’ve ever read. Yuzuki writes with such nuance x rhythm, against a backdrop of absurdity, womanhood, and FOOD. Dream. There’s some sort of pendulum of truth and lies that speaks to the human experience so masterfully.
