A Wild Sheep Chase

As with my previous post about Kerouac, there are probably more interesting insights to offer about this book, but my excitement about Murakami's style is simply too much to handle!- it just spewed ink all over this blank page in this sketchbook, with some sort of maniacal laugh i think, so i have ventured and seen that i must transfer this to digital, because the words have flowed through lava tubes of beautiful craftwork and up magma shafts of skillful beautymake from that sweet-awesome novel of his, and too much dangerous volcanic excitement has built up inside me. Mt. Fuji- man those vibrations are powerful!

the way he includes the perfect details of life and paints them together in a thoughtful shape so that this Clear vibe is created.

also the elements:
love story
adventure story
mysterious mystery story
picture of life story

with letters, introspection, outrospection, dialogue, characterizing, and more!

plus the Murakami signature whimisical elements of pure childish joy and crazy and it all, but often in the way of a coffee-drinking almost-thirty-something who likes the grey rainy beach and quiet bus rides to nice art museums, and chaos and love

and it's all just got this CLEAR BEAUTIFUL VIBE!
