The alienation that the modern mind feels due to globalization, the feeling of being lost in life, the environment where a very ordinary event suddenly becomes extraordinary, the present and the past intertwining with each other and the illusions that expand into a dream of people can be said to be common elements found in Haruki Murakami's short stories.

Murakami's direct storytelling technique greatly helps the reader to convey the invisible paths of life and the experiences of ordinary people who get caught up in them with dark humor. These stories emphasize Murakami's belief that the collection of unexpected events that an active person encounters becomes the meaning of his life.
