Embracing Murakami


Ok, I admit I have already read about four of his novels and had watched a movie adapted from his short story. Murakami never cease to create such incredible story telling...mind boggling maybe, even though there is a question about the Japanese way of "thinking" or maybe it is just embedded in their culture OR there are just things we non-Japanese could not fully understand. Murakami is a craftsman of describing simple things to the extreme and somehow it is captivating, more of having to let out the "human being" in you through reading his works. Purely addictive I guess, ha-ha.

This is actually to admire and to appreciate...BRAVO Haruki!
