I love me some Haruki Murakami, but he sure does know how to play the hits.
A description you say? For this video? A measly one minute video? You don't even give me this much room for a short. And now you come calling? Pathetic. If I have to, I'll mention that Haruki Murakami is a japanese author whose work include The Wind Up Bird Chronicle, Kafka on the Shore, 1Q84, Norwegian Wood, Sputnik Sweetheart, and more. He makes weird books for weird people and he is my favorite author. Doesn't mean we can't poke a little fun though :)
Anyway, enjoy.
Shawn

"I took off Chopin and started playing Bill Evans, carefully placing the needle down on the vinyl so as not to damage the record's already fragile existence. I stirred my black coffee three times precisely, once for each decade of my dissolving marriage while Tuna and Albacore watched from the windowsill. In the depths of my wife's eyes, I wanted to see a beautiful moon in the night sky, but I could only find a wavering reflection in choppy black water. She still had earlobes that could compete with the best of them, but I was too tired to even think much of it. Fortunately that mirror version of her was still there, in the mirror world I wanted to call my home in those days. The way there was still in the closet behind the typewriter, but before I could excuse myself to "write" the babysitter came in, who I will describe in two paragraphs of text that will make every inch of your skin crawl."

Mr.Murakami, it’s an honor that you’ve commented on my video.

[@Ccs1989]

I read 1Q84 and thought "hmm, some odd stuff in here, but probably just cause it's dealing with cults". Didn't realize its in ALL his work

[@tingle2958]

I couldn't finish it. Too much "clearly the author's own sexual fantasies" stuff

[@OokiiPeter]

The classic Murakami formula. Gotta complete the bingo!

[@rami6212]

French wine, jazz, weird sex, cats, rain

[@lucasdickinson6570]

Perfection!!!

[@soumyasharma9662]

the accuracy of this 🥲

[@typing4mylife]

I’m so glad to be in the relatively narrow demographic that this video appeals to.

[@vellichor_ventures]

Thank you for finding me!

[@lucasdickinson6570]

Of course I’m going to read it! No once can stop me.

[@TeamNutshell]

Me who has never actually read a Haruki Murakami book: omg yeah so accurate 😂

[@antoinepetrov]

Same but I've seen the film Drive My Car, so I know a bit about his style

[@LiatriisVorst]

Notable lack of long winded EAR descriptions

[@vellichor_ventures]

There’s some of that in the new book!

[@santiagocardozo4612]

You all need to demystify him...
He can be a mediocre

[@MoeKyorosuke]

I've only read Kafka on the Shore but I feel this is accurate

[@zaneberry]

bro's shirts look mad comfy

[@dw-yl3ln]

Will there be trains in it too???

[@vellichor_ventures]

No trains in the new one!

[@tallskeleton]

bro said it

[@DDi-bh3ud]

so real, i agree it’s the most true with the younger women but i’m not sure he’s written a single good woman character period

[@AB-sw4kb]

who was that girl in Norwegian Wood

[@shanetaylor761]

I like some of his female protagonist in his short stories. Also in general he normally writes sedated seeming characters who react to life like it's a dream. I'm not sure I've ever read one of his stories and thought "oh man this is a really good character".

[@vellichor_ventures]

I think Aomame is pretty great

[@ShaunageMob]

This most certainly does not need to be in HDR.

[@vellichor_ventures]

[@shethewriter]
