There's no other way to explain it if your view of the world is materialistic and you believe in evolution. | ||

They prefer the guys who write with a brain tumor and an abusive father / sexual relationship with their cousin. That way we know they are smart. Yeah I heard nothing but good stuff about dark tower.. im jacked. | ||

Norwegian Wood is just the most amazing book I have ever read in my entire life. It's just so touching... wow. I have read almost all of Murakami's books (this UK cover is much nicer than the US cover =D)! I'm currently reading: Very good thus far... Interesting essayist who recently committed suicide. He has very keen observation skills, and he has a good sense of humor. His essay topics range from lobster empathy to the porn industry. Interesting read so far. | ||
