 A lovely and sometimes heartbreaking collection of stories that are inspired by the aftermath of the earthquake in Kobe, where Murakami grew up.

 Some of the short stories worked for me and some didn't. They are more like vignettes...one thing I like about this type of story-telling is that there is no neat tying-up of the ideas / characters / plot lines at the end of each story. Ambiguity is a good thing!

 Excellent selection of short stories that are a good introduction to Murakami's work. I can't decide which one is my favorite... Honey Pie, Thailand or Superfrog saves Tokyo.
