Blind Willow Sleeping Woman

Here are animated crows, a criminal monkey, an ice man, as well as the dreams that shape us and the things we wish for. Whether during a chance reunion in Italy, a romantic exile in greece, a holiday in Hawaii or in the grip of everyday life, Murakami's Characters confront loss, or sexsuality, or the glow of a fireafly, or the impossible distance between those who ought to be closest of all.
