Little Dragged but takes you on a whole new level of weirdness
Reviewed in India on 13 September 2020
🍋When Life gives you lemons, can you really make Lemonade?.A Japanese Cryptographer from the army was once sent to Western Manchuria. He travelled with three others, one being a disguised senior officer and two other juniors. The senior on reaching the location acquired an important scroll that was believed to save Japan. One fateful night on their return, they were captured by Mongols and two other soldiers from Soviet. By the time Cryptographer woke up from his sleep, one of his teammates vanished into thin air, another was already dead, he senior was being skinned like a goat and he laid as a mass of flesh.When the enemy realised these did not process the important documents, they let go of the soldier. They spared his life by throwing him in an old well. It was a desert, nobody would possibly find him there, he was supposed to die a slow death of hunger and thirst..What changed him, was the well. Despite the plunging darkness and unaware of earthly time, he stayed there at the bottom of the earth assuming there would possibly be a saviour..What was so special about the depths and crawling darkness?.50 years later, now a high school teacher, he happens to meet a Youngster in his 30, Mr Toru Okada. Mr Okada is in search of his existence. He quit his job in a law firm, his only goals are to search his missing cat, Noburu Wataya, whom he has named after his brother in law. Get his wife's laundry, cook and clean..Death of an acquaintance brings both together. They exchange life stories thus unfolds a series of unknown and weirdest events..This is my first #MurakamiThe title makes sense after a few pages. One day when nothing goes right, Okada finds himself in his neighbour's empty well looking for what the soldier believed. The term must be "Hope".Wind up bird is what Mr Okada believes winds the spring of nature and keeps earthmoving, he calls himself "wind up the bird". That summarised the painting, "bird in the well"..Stories from Japanese history and a weird bewitched plot in #Tokyo Suburbs. Men and women from different walks of life, exchanging stories. The story is a chronology of two years divided into three parts..Apart from wonderful translation, weirdest plot twists, amazing story, I noticed it was quite repetitive. Stories kept repeating page by page. 600 pages worth of Wonderful ride into fantasy, nightmares, psychological games and a confused man.This sort of disappointed me and I was determined to finish it..like a compulsion rather read with interest. Yet This should not keep you away from the fact the story is engaging and exciting.

The corner of the cover page is little shabby.
But pages are fine.
If you are Murakami fan then buy this, you'll enjoy the mystical journey.
If you are new then please start with "sputnik sweetheart".
