Just finished Pachinko. I loved the writing style, every word was intentional. I highly recommend this book.

    I read this last year. I found it an interesting book because of how it introduced (what was to me) a completely alien – but real – sub-culture to an English-speaking audience. I found the saga form just about okay, having read much better versions (e.g., Galsworthy’s Forsyte books), but it was a fresh piece of writing overall, I agree. I lent my copy to and recommended this to many friends, who all loved it!
