This is one crazy book I ever read. I have to reread it a few time and still could not see the big picture. There is 11 short stories in the book but somehow all 11 stories has a connection with each other. The story are somewhat creepy but there are some just Murakamish. I also did some Googling and some one did chart out the entirety of all 11 stories but I'd suggest you read the book first before seeing the chart ( text me if you want it).
