Norwegian Wood

Another Murakami Haruki's book finished. This time it's 'Norwegian Wood'. I must say that this is one of the more down-to-earth-real-life kind of Murakami's works, along with 'Sputnik Sweetheart'. I really like it (true for all books by Murakami) except for one thing. There're too many sex scenes! While it is inevitable (every book has sex scenes, at least the one I've read), enough is enough. But what can I say, I can't really talk bad about Murakami.

And finally Midori spoke to me.
"Where are you now?" she calmly asked.
Where was I now?
I looked up, receiver in hand, and spun around in the phone booth, taking in my surroundings.
Where the hell was I? I couldn't tell. Not a clue. All I could see about me were people, scores of people, all tired of walking about aimlessly. I held onto the line to Midori from there in the middle of nowhere.
