The Wind-up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami
3.0

This is my second Murakami book, and in classic Murakami fashion, I still had no idea what had happened even after reading the entire thing. It at times gives me the feeling that I’m reading something akin to Virginia Woolf- but not quite, because with Wolfe I could sense the realness and the core of what she was trying to say. With Murakami though I am as lost as ever. I would love to know what he was thinking in his mind while writing - it must have taken an extraordinary mind to dream up a story so fantastical and nonsensical yet feels like it could almost make complete sense on some deeper level.
