Aneel reviewed Number9Dream by David Mitchell
Review of 'Number9Dream' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Good. Well constructed. Engaging. Solid characters and a real sense of place.
number9dream is the second novel by English author David Mitchell. Set in Japan, the 2001 novel narrates 19-year-old Eiji Miyake's search for his father, whom he has never met. Told in the first person by Eiji, it is a coming of age and perception story that breaks convention by juxtaposing Eiji Miyake's actual journey toward identity and understanding with his imaginative journey. The novel employs eclectic narrations in each chapter.
Good. Well constructed. Engaging. Solid characters and a real sense of place.
