Norwegian Wood

Hey Diary!
It's been a while since I last conversed with you, huh! Anyway, today I have a loooooot to tell you! And by lot, I mean, a whooole lot! Today, I finished reading Haruki Murakami's masterpiece, "Norwegian Wood". And to put the feelings that I went through while reading the book down in words, it's taking a lot of pain, truly! I never thought a book could awaken so many emotions in a person, never in my life had I imagined that a book could make one think so much, absorb so much! The hunger that I had in me, to know, to soak up knowledge, to learn, has been so thoroughly fulfilled and nurtured by this book, that I can't even begin to explain to you through words! Each and every character. each and every scenery has been displayed so minutely, that now that I've finished reading the book, I feel like I still want to know so much more about them! There is so much more to them than what's put in those mere pages of the book! Honestly, I literally want to hack the author's brain and know all that he'd been thinking about the characters while he was writing that impeccable masterpiece! The story awakened so many emotions in me, that I was completely overwhelmed. Each character of the story had a story of their own, and all their stories continued even after the book ended. Well, not in the literal sense of course! 'Cause some of the main characters were dead by the end of the story, but some important characters' stories continued to continue even after the book ended! I want to know what happened to Reiko after she left for her friend's music school, I want to know what happened to Toru and Midori after Toru called her from the booth, how they celebrated their engagement, their marriage and their life even after the book ended. I realized, that the author, somehow did this incredible spell over me that filled me up to the brim with a whole lot of emotions in a strange way, but also left me yearning for more! But, by some magic, I also felt that the length of the book was exactly as required! If the book was stretched even by a mere 10 pages, it would become a little to over-the-top and overdramatic.
In short, I feel like I'm in an emotional high right now! And I love the full feeling that I am in right now!
