poignant monologue


.

I was going to pick up Kafka on the Shore again around noon. Instead, I dug up the poster (psd file), which I'd built times ago, for an imaginary movie based on the book, and ended up toying with it good 8 hours, as if I was having a conversation with the figure in the poster.

Every works of Murakami Haruki's seems, to me, to be one emotionally deserted monologue, which, just like Wong Kar Wai's films, carries a great sense of longing for the certain moments in our lives. He illustrates dazedly how we exist in this world through one's disconnectiveness from so called society.

Although all of his works are great reads, I'd recommend his short stories to the beginners. They are insightful, whimsical like spring grass, and most times exhaustively touching in a manner of discovering your subconsciousness when you're heading to nowhere.

After a few consideration, I ended up dumping iTune embeded playlist and building my own. It yet can not have a link, but I could add songs that iTune do not carry. Sometimes, after we get so used to our own culture, we truly believe what we have is the only choice.
