"After Dark" by Haruki Murakami 4

Western Courier, Western Illinois University, Macomb, IL

1 day ago by

Hakuri Murakami's short novel "After Dark" is a dark, compelling story about the lives of three people during the course of one night in Japan. Instead of by any one character, the story is being told from the omniscient point of view, and in this case it seems to show us the story through the lens of a camera. The story is also told in the present tense, thereby giving a sense of immediacy to the book. This really helps the reader get into the story. Because the book is over the course of one night, there are no dull spots, and every scene helps push the story forward.
