murakami never write women ever again challenge please  

this book reminded me why i love the breath of life you can only find in magical realism and how beautifully a mind can color the hue of ink with an overlay of psychology and descriptions that shape words into a hand capable of rolling the film within the wrinkles of your brain

and then i got to the scene with

sakura who casually touches a fifteen year old runaway boy with no family to go back to and the whole maybe incest situation with miss saeki who indulges the yearning of, again, a FIFTEEN year old boy and has sex with the ghost of her dead lover by proxy

and also any other woman that exists in this book
