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.

well, I can never agree with his belief, or even I don't even bother to think too deep from his perspective. What interests me in this book is how he directly reflects the way he thinks onto the text. And we gotta admit that he does have an obscure and interesting mind.

I just love it anyway. It's unstoppable to read his books. This book is almost not like a story but fragments of events to reflect his own thinking about existentialism. It's somehow the feeling haunting him from thinking of the people who once appeared in his life that makes the sense of existence more concrete, or more vague.
After all, isn't the encountering of people, various people, in our life that gives us some meaning of existing in the awkward world? It's the past which completes the present.
Now I miss "the" people, just a few of them once in my life, importantly, influencially, and gone some time ago.......
Is this helpful?
