"The Strange Library" by Murakami tells the unfortunate tale of a young boy who goes to the library and tells the librarian that he is looking for a book. He is sent down to a basement room where an old man brings him three old books on his topic of choice and then escorts him to the Reading Room, which turns out to be a cell.
This is my first time reading anything by Murakami. The characters were odd but interesting. The plot was rather eccentric but still enjoyable. Perhaps another year I'll give a longer one of his books a try. I think I prefer my plots to be a little more logical (even fantasy worlds have rules).
