A review by kristiamihaylov
The Strange Library by Haruki Murakami
5.0
“No matter what the situation may be, I still take pleasure in witnessing the joy of others.”
“I lie here by myself in the dark at two o’clock in the morning and think about that cell in the library basement. About how it feels to be alone, and the depth of the darkness surrounding me. Darkness as pitch black as the night of.”
Profoundly beautiful and sentimental work. Murakami’s writing never cease to amaze me and the illustrations contributed a lot to the experience. The story was short, yet magnificent - and the fact that it‘s originally written as a children‘s book makes me appreciate it even more!
