Even though all the stakes are not on the table, the pacing and structure is perfect.

Meh. Picked a little pace after 40%. Emphasis on little though.

3. An independent organ

"The deep sense of loss after you have met the woman you love, made love. Then said goodbye."

Love like quick sand devours you. Even if you're aware that it's happening, you can't conciously restraint it. It takes us to new heights, thrusts us to deep depths. Throws our mind into chaos, illusions. Even drives us to death.

2. Yesterday

"When I'm not with him, I feel a pain in my chest. It's always the same place like it's a place reserved for him."

How murakami gets people to talk to each other about mundane stuff is whimsical. Everything's so close that it's comparable to your own life yet feels so far away. How intimacy and relationships are portrayed in this short story feels so real and sad.

1. Drive my car

-"Tobacco's a killer."
-"Being alive is a killer."

Image of the one you love in someone else's arms. It like demon with nowhere to go clinging to corner of ceiling, eyes fixed on you.
It's something so bitter and Murakami manages to capture it in all it's ugliness everytime.

Will I end this book or this book end me?

Gods can do anything to save thier skin

Strolling in the fields of punishment enjoying the screams of the damned

A greek dreaming about life in the new Rome, the Roman golden boy dreaming of life at greek camp

None but devils play at the edge of the World

If you don't take you dream sleep with your eyes shut you'll dream with your eyes open

REM sleep is important
