Kato Shigeaki's second novel confirmed his talent.
The plot is always interesting and its quick development glues the reader to the book, the psychological description of human feelings is deep and careful, you can't help but feeling an attachment to the main characters and share their pains and joys. Kato's dialogues are always fresh and insightful, it's a true pleasure to read its works.
It's a worthy continuation of the "Shibuya Saga" begun with his debut novel "Pink&Gray", of which it shares the setting and the main topics. This time the novel is purely entertaining and it's really enjoyable from the beginning to the end.
