"We are here in this therapy centre not to correct the deformation but to accustom ourselves to it; that one of our problems was our inability to recognise and accept our own deformities. Just as each person has certain idiosyncrasies in the way he or she walks, people have idiosyncrasies in the way they think and feel and see things, and though you may want to correct them, it dosen't happen overnight, and if you try to force the issue in one case, something else might go funny."

-Haruki Murakami, Norweigan Wood

rife with symbolism and trauma, nostalgia and sexuality, this is murakami to the core. deviating from his norm, ‘norweigan wood’ treads water in the past, rather than the present. there’s a profound lack of the usual magical realism too (though not entirely devoid) as music is the driving force of the novel. a relatable murakami novel - or the closest possible thing to it - observing adolescent love, lust, and loss. as always, it’s excellent. 4.5/5 ⭐️ #book #books #bookstagram #norweiganwood #murakami #harukimurakami #japan #fiction #beatles #magicalrealism #fiction #ukbookstagram #contemporaryfiction https://www.instagram.com/p/CLg-m1_F-Js/?igshid=1paf56majarj6

Life: Represented by Food

Just remember, life is a box of cookies. You know how they’ve got these cookie assortments, and you like some but you don’t like others? And you eat up all the ones you like, and the only ones left are the ones you don’t like so much? I always think about that when something painful comes up. ‘Now i just have to polish these off, and everything’ll be O.K.’ Life is a box of cookies.

-Haruki Murakami

“I wondered if she was trying to convey something to me, something she could not put into words - something prior to words that she could not grasp within herself and which therefore had no hope of ever turning into words.

Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

Serendipity; a happy and fortunate event happen by accident. Calming breeze and fine sands by the beach were not something that I expect to enjoy all these while. I never knew that I would bond so well with the shore after years of avoiding the sea. My banana (bubble) friend here added joy and iridescence to the day's highlight. I happily blew bubbles onto the shores of Port Dickson and was mesmorized by the emerald green waters glistening at our sights. Yet again, the child in me returned. #kwphotography #kwongyerin #selfietaim #somewhereovertherainbow #bananabubble #emerald #portdickson #serembanbound #serembanohseremban #norweiganwood #onduty#classtshirt #thetrio #quickgetaway (at Pantai Cahaya Negeri)

“I’m confused. Really confused. And it’s a lot deeper than you think. Deeper… darker… colder.”

"My heart would swell without warning, and tremble, and lurch with a stab of pain. I would try clamping my eyes shut and gritting my teeth, and wait for it to pass. And it would pass - but slowly, taking its own time, and leaving a dull ache in its path."

-Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

“I was always hungry for love. Just once, I wanted to know what it was like to get my fill of it -- to be fed so much love I couldn't take any more. Just once.”
