nickledick 's review for:

Pinball 1973 by Haruki Murakami
3.0

His second book just doesn’t compare to Hear The Wind Sing. This one is stale and took some effort to get through it. Still enjoyable but not as much, but again this is one of the first books written by a legendary fictional writer.

“When the sky darkened he would take the same path back to his own world. This return, though, was always accompanied by an ineffable sadness. The world awaiting him out there was just too big, too powerful; there seemed to be no place where he could burrow into it.”

This quote really stuck with me.
