The subject of Kokoro, which can be translated as 'the heart of things' or as 'feeling,' is the delicate matter of the contrast between the meanings the various parties of a relationship attach to it. In the course of this exploration, Soseki brilliantly describes different levels of friendship, family relationships, and the devices by which men attempt to escape from their fundamental loneliness. The novel sustains throughout its length something approaching poetry, and it is rich in understanding and insight.

Definitely recommend this book, what a story! I personally didn't guess the ending or any of the end themes whilst listening. Will purchase the book to re-read again properly. This is why I love Japanese fiction!
