Oct 30, 2007It's probably pissing on the lords of literature to say this book is a manga fan's Catcher in the Rye, but there's enough Holden Caulfield, or even Tyler Durden, in Satou and the events that surround him to make this story a solid read for anyone interested in books that examine the human condition. I tend to eat these up, and I really enjoyed this book. Chalk up another one for the "Gotta go get the manga or see the anime" camp. These Pop Fiction books are really eating into my savings! A hikikomori would say it's a conspiracy, just like Satou and the N.H.K. I have my reservations, however, that the manga/anime simply won't live up to how I felt after reading this book.
