Has anyone read this book by Haruki Murakami? If so, could you please explain it to me? I'm feeling rather dumb...
Sick and ashamed and happy (and somehow still managed to enjoy),

Kafka on the Shore
"Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion. I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward."

Just finished it up too. Trying to digest the ending. I enjoyed it up until about the last 10 pages...

Im rereading that again freeskisquaw..been quite some time. Personally my favs of his are South of the Boarder, West of the Sun, Dance Dance Dance, and A wild sheep chase. Underground and the Sarin gas attacks was an interesting read as well.
I agree that it wasnt his usual style but find myself like Gin going ???パウダーバカ！！
