[personal profile] rachelmanija reviews The Easy Life in Kamusari, a Japanese novel of a young man railroaded into learning forestry, but coming to appreciate the rhythms of mountain life. There are several occurrences in it that are mystical, but which are ambiguous and could be natural or supernatural.

Any recs for prose books, fiction or nonfiction, that have the same sort of thing (ambiguous supernatural, not forestry)? Don’t have to be Japanese—Western European would be especially welcome right now, as I’d like to read them for the vibes as regards the book I’m revising right now and it’s sequel, which is starting to stir in my head.

I could also go further into the supernatural vein if it’s got Mushishi-type vibes. (I’m aware of Natsume Yuujinchou.) I want prose right now: I am just not feeling comics, video or audio.
