This was my third Murakami book, following ‘Kafka on the shore’ and ‘South of the border, west of the sun’ chronologically, and I recently finished my first collection of short stories by the same author – ‘Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman’, another great read.

Meets a WW2 veteran who recalls his tortuous and bizarre experiences as a young Japanese officer in Manchukuo who becomes a PoW in a Russian slave labour camp. Decides to hangout in a well and gets trapped inside for days. Befriends a high school student who’s part time job is to observe men’s hair patterns. Inexplicably grows a blue patch on his face. ![]() He meets two psychic sisters, who help him in his search.
