So, today we have an activity we can participate in... and I thought, hell yes, yes, I will participate!
It goes something like this:
ACTIVITY: Write a letter to your favorite character. Rant, rave or gush…just pretend like they are real and you just want to let them know a “few things”. – Activity courtesy of author, Kelly Walker
Dear Toru Okada
I hope you're well.
I was wondering if you could answer a few questions, please find them below.
- Why do you enjoy sitting down wells? Is it the quiet? Is it the darkness? I mean, you almost died down one once... just sitting there, sleeping. You didn't really enlighten us during your lengthy hallucinations.
- Did you ever find that blasted wind-up bird? Did you throttle it. I would have.
- Why do you only fall for very strange, emotionally deranged and sexually unbalanced women?
- Do you still rate passing men's balding heads?
- Why do you never seem to have any control over your life? Do you enjoy being a floater?
- Did you ever try to lick that mark on your face yourself? Did you get any visions or impressions?
I love you. I do. But you're weird. I just wanted a few answers so that I may love you more.

Many thanks,
Bah! I don't even know who this is but I loved it. "I love you. I do. But you're weird." Sounds like someone I need to know!
ReplyDeleteHaha! Most definitely. It is the oddest and most haunting book I've ever read. It's bizarre and frustrating. Read it with caution!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I haven't heard of this one either but all those questions certainly make it sound interesting.
