Journal Entry 1 by Jiline from Linz, Oberösterreich Austria on Monday, September 12, 2011
When a man`s favorite elephant vanishes, the balance of his whole life is subtly upset; a couple's midnight hunger pangs drive them to hold up a McDonald's; a woman finds she is irresible to a small green monster that burrows through her front garden; an insomniac wife wakes up to a twilight world of semi-conciousness in which anything semms possible - even death. In every one of the stories that make up "The elephant Vanishes", Murakami makes a determined assault on the normal. He has deadpan genius for dislocating realities to uncover the surreal in the everyday, the extraordinary in the ordinary.


Found in the public bookcase in Linz.

Nice book with many short stories.
