Belle ambiance japonaise dans ce livre que l'éditeur compare trop facilement à Lost in translation (comme souvent ce qui se passe au Japon).
On apprécie le cheminement presque poétique du narrateur, perdu dans sa vie plus que dans son hôtel, qui dévoile peu à peu les failles de sa petite existence.
La chute - le troisième acte - du livre est... déroutante.
