Review of 'Afterdark' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
A lovely book with nice stories. I'm thinking, anybody should read one Murakami - book in the life. But better two

Short read. Decent.
First book of Murakami's that I have read. I like his terse, cinematic style. But this book didn't seem complete to me; Murakami hints at possibilities and darker, deeper threads of narrative, but eventually pulls back for a kind of storybook ending. I enjoyed his characters dialogues, however.
