Earthlings by Sayaka MurataMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
This is a wild ride, like Murakami directed by Takashi Miike. Although covering similar ground (in some ways) to Murata's previous excellent novel Convenience Store Woman, the approach is much more over the top and enters some dark territory - veering between black humour and genuinely shocking/disturbing. Worth reading, and Murata is an interesting writer, but just be sure you come prepared.
