Ayrt - hm… for one person, we were reading it for a French class and it may have been more of a function of the class/translation aspect of it.

The other that I remember was a surprise, since to me it was similar to other media in sentiment or tone that affected him deeply. But he had a “oh, right, that book existed” sort of response when I brought it up once.

Actually, it’s interesting that you found it hopeless. I don’t remember that feeling, but thinking about it understand why someone might. And that’s something I’ve seen the latter person above bounce off hard when he’s felt that way about something.

Also I didn’t read at a time or place when it was in fashion (I honestly only knew the title from reruns of a 1970s anime tv show verrrry loosely based on it!), so maybe hype level is a factor.

Well, people have different reasons to feel the way they do about books or whatever. Maybe they found it at a difficult time or shared it with someone that isn't around anymore.

SA / AYRT - I read this after 3 years of losing family members so it hit a nail.
