Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman by Haruki MurakamiMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
After having read another short story collection by Murakami (After the quake), and feeling quite let-down, I had decided I only liked his longer works, which gave me more time to enter into his weird worlds. Well, this wasn't true for this collection. Like with any short story collection, it was somewhat hit or miss, but there ended up being quite a few hits, and very good ones at that. Here are a list of my favorites:
birthday girl
the mirror
Chance traveler
where I'm likely to find it
the kidney shaped stone
A Shinagawa Monkey
But just skip "Crabs". That was seriously gross.
