confused.

Case travels through Japan in William Gibson’s Neuromancer. Before we met Case, he had been in Amsterdam and Memphis. He is mainly in and around Tokyo. Case spends a lot of time in Ninsei, the heart of Night City. He stays in the district of Chiba. He travels from Shiga through Ninsei into Baiitsu. Gibson uses very specific examples and references to describe the places that Case goes. He points out specific objects in a place, or a certain type of decoration.

I am having a hard time understanding this book; I cannot distinguish when he is talking about a real place or cyberspace...
