When a man's favourite elephant vanishes, the balance of his whole life is subtly upset; a couple's midnight hunger pangs drive them to hold up a McDonald's; a woman finds she is irresistible to a small green monster that burrows through her front garden; an insomniac wife wakes up to a twilight world of semi-consciousness in which anything seems possible - even death. In every one of the stories that make up The Elephant Vanishes, Murakami makes a determined assault on the normal. He has a deadpan genius for dislocating realities to uncover the surreal in the everyday, the extraordinary in the ordinary. (20021018)
##终于听完了,这个版本的有声书听起来真是超舒服。只可惜村上先生磨磨唧唧的笔法,详细的铺垫很久很久,所有的场景都充满细节的浮现在眼前,感情也是细腻的,可是最后却没有任何故事的结束了。这也算反高潮吗?
评分##比较喜欢"The Second Bakery Attack","The Fall of the Roman Empire, The 1881 Indian Uprising, Hitler's Invasion of Poland, And The Realm of Raging Winds","A Family Affair","The Last Lawn of the Afternoon"四篇。

评分##还是很有意思的,闭上眼听书,脑中剧场比电影精彩百倍,真人动漫画风格随意切换,远景近景特写各种调度都随心所欲,太过瘾了。进入村上春树的奇幻世界,这种被empowered的感觉尤为强烈。
