I lived through the following spring, at eighteen, with that knot of air in my chest, but I struggled all the while against becoming serious. Becoming serious was not the same thing as approaching truth, I sensed, however vaguely. But death was a fact, a serious fact, no matter how you looked at it. Stuck inside this suffocating contradiction, I went on endlessly spinning in circles. Those were strange days, now that I look back at them. In the midst of life, everything revolved around death.Excerpt "Norwegian Wood", Haruki Murakami
As much as I love Murakami, this book is better suited for cold weather reading, and so I'm thinking I might put this re-read to rest for a few months. The word is the film version will be released in Japan this winter. Jonny Greenwood is purportedly composing the
score.
