وصف الناشر
There’s a girl at their school who is always ill. She routinely arrives late, leaves early, or doesn’t show up at all, and skips gym as a matter of course. She’s pretty, and the boys take to whispering that she’s a cloistered princess. As the self-described worst loser in her class soon finds out, they just don’t know what a monster she is. So begins a tale of mysterious maladies that are supernatural in origin yet deeply revealing of the human psyche, a set of case files as given to unexpected feeling as it is to irreverent humor. So begins the legendary novel that kicked off the MONOGATARI series, whose anime adaptations have enjoyed international popularity and critical acclaim. This first of three parts introduces Senjogahara and Hachikuji, and fans of the blockbuster prequel KIZUMONOGATARI will be delighted to meet their favorite crazies again: the weirdly reliable narrator Araragi, class president among class presidents Hanekawa, shady problem-solver Oshino, and a certain pale, blonde former vampire.
مراجعات العملاء
A shame I can’t read Japanese because this book makes me want to.
When being recommended this book by a friend he mentioned the distance or distinction in reading the novel in its original language vs English and after finishing I understand completely what he meant. Lots of play on words that hold more meaning in the original written katakana style.
The author himself speaks on the miscommunication of ideas and concepts with books and stories and to a degree another layer can be added to this in reading a translated work like this.
All of that being said I think it’s still amazing who entertained I managed to be reading a lesser or rather more accessible version of the work.
The stream of thought witty dialogue helped quite a bit in spicing the book with personality and comedy and the scenarios and situations were unique and poignant especially the second part for me.
Bakemonogatari
Though the translation lost the charm of several jokes and a the word-plays, it is still a fantastic piece to read, with intriguing characters and clever plot lines. Even if you’re not interested in the series as a whole, the books still hold several entries of fascinating information and fantastic stories.
A little tacky, but great
A set of wonderful ideas told very well. The constant sniping between the main characters irritated me a little. It may just be me.
