    1. With the well known complaints of how Murakami portrays women in his works, we’ll, uh, see how it goes.

      To be more accurate, this isn’t his first book with a female protagonist, as 1Q84 has one, but it’s his first book with a female protagonist for the entire book.

    2. It’d be hilarious if she’s simply a reverse male Harukami protagonist. Obsessing over dicks and teenaged boys.

      I think Murakami is either going to lock in and somehow philosophically stumble into an incredible piece of (perhaps in some ways accidental) feminist literature, or this is going to be such a trainwreck of characterization that it makes most of r/menwritingwomen look like peak prose. Either way I’m sat
