If you're referring to a novel chronicle that reads like a fever dream, probably Hardboiled Wonderland by Murakami

Obsessed man pursues invincible incomprehensible being that may or may not be a metaphor for God, questionable sexual subtext, various amusing asides and shenanigans including "encyclopedic" passages, unusual features in structure/formatting of the book itself

i feel like the writing wasn't mature enough for what the book set itself to do, yknow? but i do appreciate the amount of effort that went into it

Not OP but I thought the really cool parts of the book were dragged down by the annoying Johnny Truant shit. I wanted more incomprehensible house mysteries and less details about Johnny getting his asshole fingered.

Johnny is shit for most of the story but the baby anecdote at the end is maybe the best part.
