Critics Review
“Reading Dogra Magra is like experiencing an incoherent nightmare, like being trapped in an asylum with the key thrown away…you don’t want to stay inside this asylum, you think you’re going crazy for real, you want to scream ‘LET ME OUT! FOR GOD’S SAKE! LET ME OUT!’ but no one is going to save you…and you can trust no one in the story because it’s almost a certainty that people are either lying to you or they’re crazy. That’s what you get by reading Dogra Magra.” (Mizuki)
“Read this twice. both times, i was under the influence of lemon iced tea and boredom-and i do idolise Yumeno as a writer, so there’s that. Perhaps reading this was an unwise decision … i’ve never been more mindblown and confused by a book in my life!
Absolutely brilliant. Wickedly bewildering and beautifully written. Yumeno’s dreamy and admittedly incoherent style of writing has me floored each time. from his short stories, to this novel, and to his poetry, he always shows up and gives his best writing.” (Emil)
