This impactful, genius and unique Heaven hurts.
Heaven is a Japanese translated novel by a genius author Meiko Kawakami, read any of her book and you will get you know why I called her a genius.
The book is about bullying and behaviour of bullies and one who get bullied. It's a raw and grounded exploration behind impact of bullying as well as human relationships. Meiko created something frighteningly honest and powerful with her flair of words and dialogue writing.
I really adored the relationship between our protagonist and Komoji ( his classmate who also get bullied), together they both gave each other strength and support. The writing was very lyrical and it just flew smoothly perfectly knitted with top notch dialogues which weren't too teenagey but at the same time correctly explains the feeling of teen heart and mind.
This was heartbreaking , distressing and difficult because of all those bullying scenes that's why I said this is more real and grounded.
And that talk between our protagonist and his bully about the philosophy behind bullying. It's hits so hard and so bad.
Highly recommended for lovers of good literature.�
