April 4th (Day 4)
Only a very smol update, had little time to spend on reading:
Today I’ve finished reading 夜中の汽笛について, あるいは物語の効用について and re-read some of the passages out loud to myself a few times. I’ve also annotated the text with some readings/meanings where necessary.
I’ve noticed that each time I re-read the story, I understand it a little better - and each time the emotions conveyed in the text become a little more profound and vivid. Yet to read the English translation - will be interesting.
While I don’t want to keep going at this story for too long (because it feels a lil lazy), I also don’t want to move on from it. There is still so much to understand! Damn is this fun :333
