Dan, I really loved Wind-Up, although I'm still kind of "digesting" it too. Every time I go outside I look up at the sky and imagine what the view would look like from the bottom of a well. I even asked my husband if we had a dry well in our backyard if he'd ever go and sit in it. He looked at me like I'd lost it.

Hi Fiona!!!! Fiona wrote, "The bit at the end of Kafka made me squirm more then the torture scene in Wind-up which I thought was bad enough! That made my skin crawl and my hairs stand on end." I'll be getting to that part soon then, because I have just over 100 pages left to read in Kafka on the Shore. I'm glad to have advance warning. I'll be sure to be in the house when I get to the end, otherwise my neighbors may begin to wonder about me (as if they haven't already)!

I was reading it outside on my patio, and I was squirming like you wouldn't believe. I hope no one was looking out their window because they'd sure be wondering what in the world I was reading.

Dan, I read the torture scene yesterday(in Wind-Up) and it was one of the most sickening things I've read in a long time!
