About meI'm a german girl living in Dublin/Ireland. Would love to read much more than I actually do, but don't have the time to do so... as always...!

About my libraryIt's a shame, but I have hundreds of books, back in germany, stored in my mums cellar...waiting for me. Everybody called me crazy, because when I left germany I had to chuck out all my stuff in order to keep the little space in my mum's cellar for the books. Can't help it, but I'm not able to let go of my beloved books...

About the question in your Kafka on the Shore review: I'm not sure, but I think that Johnnie Walker was the wormy-Colonel Sanders thing that wanted to get into the entrance stone. Why, I'm not sure, but it seems that whoever could open the entrance stone had to be able to communicate with it, and Nakata was the only one who could. The worm-thing got Nakata involved through Johnnie Walker (and it had to be in Johnnie's dog too because Nakata could only talk to cats). Murakami uses cats as a symbol of sorts of a world external to our perception, and Nakata's ability to talk to cats put him half in that world, which must have also been the world of the entrance stone and Colonel Sanders.

What do you think?
