A Zoo in Winter · review
“A Zoo in Winter” is a pleasant find for an evening in which you want to relax, take a light read and plunge into the atmosphere of your newfound life, where there is hard but beloved work and relaxation over a glass with colleagues. The readers are presented to a story of a guy named Hamaguchi, who wants to find a profession he likes. This desire leads him to the busy Tokyo, where the protagonist is introduced to the hardships of working on a manga, lack of sleep, passionate colleagues and nightlife with alcohol. And this is not a story about a childhood dream with dramaand endurance. Here the main character realizes that he has overstayed in current life and needs to find what he likes more. By a happy coincidence he is able to experience something new that finally brings satisfaction. And this down-to-earth reading is the main source of pleasure. No action, just a piece of Hamaguchi's life, which has started to live like he wanted. And it was so pleasant to read that my hand did not allow me to swallow the whole book at once. I spread the reading out over three days - into three calm and pleasant evenings, where I, together with the protagonist, exhaled after submitting the manuscript on the deadline and smiled during moments of fun.
Therefore, if you need to spend a quiet and pleasant evening, I advise you to get acquainted with this book. A pleasant dive is guaranteed.
