"Killing Commendatore" was an intense and satisfying read.
If you enjoy going down mysterious, supernatural "rabbit holes"
than this Murakami novel is excellent.


Reading "Digital Minimalism" by Cal Newport non-fiction
and gives much, much "food for thought".

just what I'm doing...date a girl who reads?
oh yes, and love a girl who enjoys reading Murakami...smiling
...terrific surreal...magical realism...if you enjoy these you'll
enjoy this novel.

It's interesting that Murakami writes his novels in Japanese
his native language and then they are translated into other
several languages. I sometimes want to learn Japanese to
understand what may be missing from the English
translations...better yet I will begin reading these in my
native language...now that would be interesting...

good reading, Greco
