The Character of Rain (French: Métaphysique des tubes) is a 2000 short novel by the Belgian author Amélie Nothomb originally written in French. The English translated edition of the novel was published by Faber and Faber.
Epic and sparkling first half, very physical and very metaphysical indeed. The second half can't live up to this. It's basically just episodes from a childhood in Japan. Nice, but a disappointment after such a start.
