murakami musings

am currently reading Kafka on The Shore by Haruki Murakami ... and picked up some interesting quotes worth pondering ...

silence ... is something that you can actually hear ...

its true isn't it? you hear yourself more when silence envelopes ...

different vs unusual

one and the same ... to be used interchangeably? what separates the two? do the underlying connotations run deeper? of course, this is better understood in the context of the novel ...

more musings to come as the novel progresses ...
