i consider this one of the most depressing works of murakami.
there are things that happen in life that forever changes us... e.g. death, betrayal, failure of a relationship. and each of us deal with these things differently, in our own little ways. but it doesn't change the fact that we are still haunted by it. as the cliche goes, the past determines how we live the present and see the future.
after the quake is an exploration of the human psyche when dealt with life changing events. terrified, lonely, and empty. most of us are.
