Hard-boiled Wonderland and the End of the World by Haruki Murakami.. The emotional solitude of the unnamed protagonist is developed so brilliantly. He is very introspective man who seeks to see the best in his life, engaging in a subtle conflict between willed optimism and natural pessimism regarding his profession and lifestyle. The book explores the nature of consciousness and the sub-conscious, two subjects which have always fascinated me. The novel reminds me that I should always appreciate the simpler things in life, even when I am in the face of great adversity, whatever that may be.
