Well, I think it's consciously, the hard-boiled detective novel is something that Japanese like very much. Detective novels have their own audience. I think, you know, Sheep was a major leap for Murakami. He started writing in a much more, I would say, serious tone, but still full of humour.
Most of the afternoons, I would pass looking out of the pasture. I soon began seeing things, a figure emerging from the birch woods and running straight in my direction. Usually it was the sheep man. But sometimes it was the rat, sometimes my girlfriend. Other times it was the sheep with a star on its back. In the end, though, nobody ever materialised. The wind had picked up, driving the snow down at a 30-degree angle, rather like the slanting lines of some department store wrapping paper pattern.
