Yes! Dubliners is brilliant

 

There is a very unique creepiness to this, not horror tho.

I don't wanna spoil this. So I won't say why I like it, but you won't regret reading this.

 

How do you folks feel about links to the genius website. I feel weird linking it but it's decent imo.

This is a worse ui but without a paywall in case y'all don't have a paywall bypass.

This is a short story from the collection 'Men without women'.

Here's a link to Anna's archive:

https://annas-archive.org/search?index=&page=1&q=Men+without+women+murakami&sort=

Otherwise you can read it from the link by bypassing the paywall using the extension, bypass paywalls clean d.

Good luck! And I do strongly suggest getting the extension anyways. Even if you intend to download the book for this story.

If you liked Norwegian Wood, you'll love this. Honestly I like most of his work and think this is worth reading anyways but perhaps I'm a bit biased.

One of the greatest stories I've ever read. If you love a psychoanalytical story or supernatural fiction, give it a go!

I actually think I've figured this out but would love to hear yalls thoughts here too.

At first I was against the idea of writing a character smarter than myself since it was a rather intimidating idea. I had seen and read terrible smart characters which felt omnipotent and made nearly no sense to me. On the other hand I read characters who were just genuinely well written and smart and I couldn't realise why.

Recently I came to the conclusion that the answer is simpler than I thought. Not just that it's a rather universal feeling. The feeling of being unable to express an idea you know well but can't seem to explain out loud. All you need for a smart character is perfect recall. To remember everything all the time.

Not knowing, not deducing, remembering and communicating.
