A Wild Sheep Chase Haruki Murakami

Apparently a prequel to Dance Dance Dance which is one of my favorites of his. Also, now I'll need to read Pinball, 1973 since apparently that is the first in the Trilogy of the Rat. Overall, the book had some great points. It dwelt on seclusion and the fragility of the mind but like all of Murakami's characters, no one loses it internally. They accept the magical, mystical bullshit going on and just choose "not to talk about it." Maybe it's a cultural thing. 3.5/5
