What I saw wasn’t a ghost. It was simply – myself. I can never forget how terrified I was that night, and whenever I remember it, this thought always springs to mind: the most frightening thing in the world is our own self. What do you think?
The mirror Haruki Murakami
This was one of the best books I ever read.
Haruki Murakami is a Japanese author I got into during 2006 by that old flame I mentioned earlier. He perhaps might be my favorite literary discovery and I have gone on to read almost all of his books.
I think I have 2 other pictures somewhere in which I am reading 2 other novels.
It's so glad to have a picture with this greatest Japanese designer and artist, Takashi Murakami in GEISAI TAIWAN #2, the friend in the leftside is Fiona. (photo by Sam)
Waterloo Tea, Wyndham Arcade, Cardiff, 2:30 PM. The arcades were bathed with light on this sunny afternoon, and he is having tea out in front of the shop. (Note: they do an excellent coffee too). He is reading Haruki Murakami's collection of stories, 'Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman'. He said he had read Murakami's recent book, 'Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage' in English, and then listened to the audiobook in Japanese, and he noted the closeness of the translation. I said I had read 'The Wind-up Bird Chronicle', but not this one.
Thanks for being part of the project. Other photos in my series of readers are here: www.flickr.com/photos/greg_myers/albums/72157652125931010.

Someone asked about the surrealist elements in his work, as well as the recurring locations and characters, asking if he was creating a world of his own like Joyce, or dredging things up from old books for continuity. He said "Joyce, wow... I write, I go into a cave. It's dark, I can't see, and I bring up what I find. I don't know if it's real or surreal, or not-real but it's what I find in the cave".

Takashi Murakami (村上 隆 Murakami Takashi?, born in Tokyo) is an internationally prolific contemporary Japanese artist. He works in fine arts media—such as painting and sculpture—as well as what is conventionally considered commercial media —fashion, merchandise, and animation— and is known for blurring the line between high and low art.

Waiting in line for the Haruki Murakami signing... It's too bad my first edition of "The Wind up Bird Chronicle" has a cracked spine. But I got him to sign a first edition "A Wild Sheep Chase" and "What I Talk About When I Talk About Running."
Cute and crazy-awesome, but for $60? I could probably make one myself!
Still... want one...
Museum gift shops really do have the coolest damn toys you've ever seen, if overpriced.
I wasn't expecting the artist to be there with balloons based on his art but I guess why not if you are alive. Past art balloons have been based on art by Keith Haring and Tom Otterness. Um, yeah, Tom is still around...
