Murakami: Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman - Invitation to view

[David Kilroy]

WUBC is a broken bird. It's his Lynchiest, improvised for
serialization, and with a deeply problematic, middle-aged divorcee's
view of sex and women... But the historical content quite favorably
recalls Ballard.  What mainly bugs me is how Wind-Up's American
edition was truncated by editors. It's bloated, safe to say, but not
having a complete translation I can't honestly determine whether it's
total twaddle. The jumps and plot holes, particularly the inconsistent
characterization, that might be Murakami wingin' it, or it could be
impatient Americans... I just can't tell.
