Like gentle nocturne rippling.
🌿 In this very gentle text, every little thing in life is unexpectedly connected. It's probably a turn around, and the beauty is there. From time to time, there is a kind of excitement and excitement that makes people want to scream, so it is like this. Although I can't remember the Japanese names, every character seems to be rooted in my heart effortlessly and can shine brightly. Then, let these soft stories warm the corners of more people's mouths when they are sleeping soundly.
The theme of love is an area that Isaka rarely touches, with several short stories arranged and combined. Encounters, fate, and coincidences are intertwined like a spider web, with a large number of easter eggs and detailed processing. The warm power is like a bullet hitting the reader, bringing amazing healing. A violin is quiet and bright, surprising and distant.
I was originally listening to the book, but I couldn't help but stop and pull up the character relationship chart.
My previous impression of Kotaro Isaka's works was that his style was relatively brisk and easy to read, but he liked to give criminals and cheaters a cute side. It was hard to tell whether he was whitewashing, increasing the complexity of the characters, or not caring about the moral principles in society. As he said, there are no criminals in this book. The world is like a beautiful mini fairy tale town. There is an intricate network of relationships between the characters. They influence each other and depend on each other. Each small story is relatively healing. What I personally like is that every relationship is not forced to have a happy ending. Some people need time, and some people need fate. I think writing such a book requires some tolerance, humor and wisdom.
