It does look like a literary book to me, so take that for what it is worth (does this count for a confirmation?).

I'm definitely putting this author on the radar of potential reads. I've managed to find a pile of Japanese and Chinese authors that I had never heard of in selecting some of the books for my reading list next year:
Kenzaburo Oe
Gao Zingjian
Ha Jin

I'll still follow the thread as sometime I might like to try the novel.

So that is 7 to 10 depending on what interpretation to apply to Orlok's, JohnF.'s, and fantasyfan's posts? Perhaps these three could clarify?
