Everything is blowing up around us, but there are still those who care about a broken lock and others who are dutiful enough to try to fix it ... But maybe that's the way it should be. Maybe working on the little things as dutifully and honestly as we can is how we stay sane when the world is falling apart.
I am completely in love with Murakami's prose. always have been from the first time I picked one of his books years ago. His writing style pulls me effortlessly into the narrative like no other author's does. It makes me relive the sense of awe I had as a child when I was picking up books for the first time and understanding just how evocative words could be, How an author could create an ambience just with words, a world that I would just want to escape into and how magical a feeling is that.
Every story, although simple, leaves the impression that there is some deeper meaning to be deciphered with enough contemplation and although the opposite is stated, I feel the stories somehow invite the reader to do so.
Loved all of them.
