Review: After Dark

After Dark After Dark by Haruki Murakami
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A Dream like prose. Murakami can put Dream into words. He analyzes and dissects our darkest nocturnal human tendencies with astounding sensitivity. After Dark - it is like reading a Movie, reader is just a view point - a scene - and it flows effortlessly frame by frame even though it does not have any plot to speak of but in this case it doesn't really matter. Plus the reference to the Jazz and classical music in the book makes it even more perfect - like a background score. The metaphorical significance of the novel and its title is complete in one volume.
