    I read through Murakamis works a few years ago, and I liked them so much that I'm going through them again. I found out that the first three were part of a set, so I'm reading them in order this time.

    strangely, that is exactly how i felt. maybe it's also about not having the right focus, i realised i enjoy murakami's novels a lot more when i have time to do long reading sessions - not the case at the moment, i'm busy and i lacked focus.

    so i was drawn to the story which is why i didn't give up on reading, but i found it hard to go back to reading. very strange. i still appreciated the creativity and the originality of this writer tho, he can be really surreal!

  • Can never get rid of this helpless obsession of how Haruki Murakami exposes the plots, and for sure including this book as well. I love how he used "a sheep" as the metaphoric symbol for the mysterious, ridiculously over the top political power controlling the world we're living in everyday.
