Honestly I find the whole "let's have a fictional author character (Eto) with fictionally published works (Dear Kafka, etc.) in my manga - which is a fictional work that is commercially published in the real world)" thing really strange and a bit... contrived? Especially when characters like Kaneki and Rize reference to these fictionally published works, where they summarise the plot and then state their favourite parts, but outside of what they just said we have no clue of the book. It sounds super confusing and in theory but I think works well in practice maybe?

Perhaps Ishida will actually release Deaf Kafka, Salt and Opium, Hanged Man's MacGuffin etc. as books because that'd be really cool and might give insight into Eto's character.
