These are beautifully written stories, often funny, always moving."--Chicago Tribune With the same deadpan mania and genius for dislocation that he brought to his internationally acclaimed novels A Wild Sheep Chase and Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World, Haruki Murakami makes this collection of stories a determined assault on the normal. A man sees his favorite elephant vanish into thin air; a newlywed couple suffers attacks of hunger that drive them to hold up a McDonald's in the middle of the night; and a young woman discovers that she has become irresistible to a little green monster who burrows up through her backyard. By turns haunting and hilarious, The Elephant Vanishes is further proof of Murakami's ability to cross the border between separate realities -- and to come back bearing treasure.

##最感人的应该是同名短篇里大象和饲养员那种相依为命的感情。不过村上笔下的男女总有一种"我不懂爱我不幸福可是我也不难过我就这么活到老也没问题”的感觉,读起来真是难受
评分##像小口小口地喝一杯威士忌那样缓慢地把这本书读完了,读到最后仿佛都能感觉到杯子里的冰块开始融化。喜欢再袭面包店,那个割草坪的故事和象的消失
评分##比起村上的长篇 更喜欢他的短篇 他的other world是很能让人为之感动的 英文翻译的非常美 读到最后一页鸡皮疙瘩都起来了 i feel me i feel自己有时是消失的饲养员 有时是消失的大象
评分##喜欢小故事啊
评分##Middle-class (usually middle-aged) people reflect upon misplaced desire. The several recurring names and symbols are interesting (e.x. Noboru Watanabe, elephant, people you met once but never cross paths again, etc.), which provide subtle links between the short stories.
