Death Sentences | 
pickDeath Sentences is a genre bending, page turner of a book that is impossible to fit into a box of any kind. Part hard boil detective, part literary survey of the surrealist movement, part dystopian science fiction, part thriller, all tied together by a Ring like plot device that is somehow incredibly readable.
BarbaraBB It sounds great but difficult too! 3y
stretchkev @BarbaraBB The surrealist bits are pretty surface level, mostly there to add a bit of flavor, nothing too difficult. I no nothing about surrealism, besides learning a few names and a litany of “interesting“ deaths I'm still pretty clueless about them. Certainly a more cerebral aspect to the story than a typical thriller but not all that intellectually taxing either. Not everyone will be a fan of the stilted Japanese writing style. 3y
BarbaraBB I mostly love that style. Thank you for explaining! I‘ll stack! 3y
