The Thief | Fuminori Nakamura

Pickpick

My second book by Fuminori, while not as dark as Evil and the Mask, still involves criminal and violent behavior, as the title implies.

This book was a quick read; I needed to know what happened next. However, much of the novel was a meta-examination. Through the eyes of the thief, we witness the consequences of criminal behavior. A lot of thought went into the details of the criminal world.

LiterRohde Because of the detail and meta-analysis, The Thief may not be as fast paced as a typical crime thriller, though I‘m no expert. But for my tastes, it really worked. I look forward to reading more by this author. 7y
arubabookwoman One of my favorite Japanese crime authors. 7y
LiterRohde @arubabookwoman I want to read more! Cult X and The Gun look good. Any suggestions? (edited) 7y
arubabookwoman @LiterRohde Those are the only 2 I‘ve read by Nakamura. Other Japanese crime writers I like are #KeigoHigashima, #ShuichiYoshida, #SeichoMatsumoto (esp. #AQuietPlace) and #NatsuoKirino (esp. #Out). 7y

Book #2 in the #DiversityDecBingo! So far this is REALLY intriguing. I'm excited to see how the individual lives of all the characters will connect. I have a feeling all hell will break loose as I progress onwards! 😍😆😲
