REVIEW: Junichiro Tanizaki – The Key (novel) – No Spoilers!
This review does not contain any spoilers. It took me a few hours to read this short novel. I hated it. Not only the story, but the whole book, its style and technique. I didn’t like how it is written, I didn’t like the mixture between the 2 journals. I think it is poorly written. There are no metaphors, no poetics, no style. The characters are very poorly developed. The writer focuses too much on stereotypes. Also, as the story flows, it becomes more and more sick and psychotic, but this doesn’t make it more interesting. I don’t recommend this book and I honestly don’t understand how it came to…
