You know the weird thing about Murakami's books is that the woman characters are only the ones that can actually be trusted. they're all very eccentric and know things and give you good advice and can be relied upon to seek help when the male protagonist is in unimaginable unfathomable unspeakable ordeals. Malta Kano, May Kasahara, Nutmeg, Sakura, the narrator's girlfriend (wild sheep chase) are examples to name a few. And yet. It seems the moment a female character is introduced, you can expect a sexual encounter at every corner. It's like it's only waiting to happen. In all the three books I've read (the fourth one was a collection of short stories). you can feel it coming from the first time they meet the male protagonist and their appearance is described, if you've read like one book of his then certainly. you sense it in the way their body is described, to depict some kind of weird idk sexual appeal? not sure if I'm wording it correctly. but you know it coming from how the description has less to do with their personhood and rather something more... always gives you a bad feeling about the protagonist. also, 'the male gaze'.

A Wild Sheepchase
After the book by Haruki Murakami. I felt the need to connect the first story in the book, about a woman the main character once dated, who always sat in cafés reading and led a rather promiscuous life and eventually ended it and the main story of the search after the magic sheep. Through the whole book I couldn’t forget her.

After reading your thoughts on hemingway; I want to know what you feel about murakami
(different anon)
i have some qualms with him.
my first issue is that, after you read a few of his books, you realize that the male narrators/main characters are all like... the same person. they feel so similar, and it’s just repetitive.
second of all, it’s a shame that he’s so weird about women because some of his plots are really interesting, and i find his writing style to be skillful. sputnik sweetheart, for example, had a fascinating premise, but the narrator’s sexual fantasies were completely jarring/out of place and degraded the quality of the text.

The fragrance of the breeze, the tone of the light, the tiny flowers in the grass, the subtle reverberations that accompanied sounds: all these told me that autumn had come again, increasing the distance between me and the dead with each cycle of the seasons.
Kizuki was still 17 and Naoko 21: forever

The Aspects Of Mountain
Mountains, according to the angle of view, the season, the time of day, the beholder's frame of mind, or any one thing, can effectively change their appearance. Thus, it is essential to recognize that we can never know more than one side, one small aspect of a mountain.

One thing I love about reading Haruki Murakami stories is that you get an achingly beautiful line like, “In the aquarium of my memory, it is always late autumn.” But then the context is the protagonist telling you that every time he has sex, he’s reminded of the whale penis that was on display at the local aquarium when he was a kid. 💀
