i read this during a vacation in greece so that was a nice coincidence! this was my first murakami novel (started reading kafka but haven't finished yet) and even though i knew to expect weird descriptions of nipples and strange cats i did not expect this to throw me into an existential crisis. i spent a few days in a complete daze after finishing this book so it's safe to say i really liked it!
