How the hell did they make a feature length film out of one of these stories?

Samsa in Love was as much a delight to read as An Independent Organ was an abomination

ughhhhh this would be AMAZING IF.... Marakami had any inkling of how to write a well-developed female character. it's actually baffling that he can't channel his incredible writing talent to accomplish this task. there were certain stories in this collection that were absolute diamonds, but others left me flat and bored. overall I appreciate the artistry and theme throughout, even though at times it was a little excruciating.
