Haruki Murakami is a Japanese writer who became a classic in his lifetime thanks to his novels "A Wild Sheep Chase," "Norwegian Wood," and "Kafka on the Shore." The collection "Nobody on the Merry-Go-Round" is woven from numerous stories Murakami heard. They are not fictional. They represent Japanese life as it really is.

The heroine breaks up with her husband over a purchase of shorts. A woman meets a man from a painting she bought several years ago. The hero is overcome by nausea after receiving a phone call from an unknown person. This nausea continues for 40 days until the calls stop. A student rents an apartment across the street from his lover and begins to stalk her, gradually losing himself.

These stories want to be told.

"...our life is like a merry-go-round—we merely spin in a certain place at a certain speed. Our spinning has no direction. There's no way to get off, no way to change seats."
