I'd heard Murakami didn't write women well, and perhaps I started with the wrong book of his. Among the lovely stretches of writing there were random bits that felt like incel fan fiction. And every time such a line would occur, I'd ask myself “is this because the characters are all supposed to be deeply flawed?” But I don't think that's the case.
I liked enough of the writing to try another of his books.
