One of my (several) current reads is "1Q84" by Haruki Murakami.
The taxi's radio was tuned to a classical FM broadcast.
It starts like your typical Murakami-book. Description of something very simple and everyday, which, over the course of pages, turns into something subtly magikal and quite irresistible. Can't wait to go on with this one.
I so enjoyed this book. You might be interested in the music list we came up with when we discussed it in the Sword and Laser group: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/715122-the-music
ReplyDeleteThank you, I'll take a look in a minute.
ReplyDeleteI do catch myself thinking, while reading Murakami's work, that it should maybe be accompanies by actually listening to the endless references on music that ha makes. :)
