A book brief
"Sheep Hunting Adventure" tells the story of the protagonist "I" quit his job and traveled to Hokkaido with his girlfriend to find a special sheep.
A book of word clouds
This issue is based on the image of a sheep draped in heavy wool. There are not many specific descriptions of sheep in the book, but it is psychic but mysterious and strange, a brown sheep with star-like markings on its back.
(Word cloud description: The word cloud is a visual highlight of the key words in the text, and the larger the words, the more they are mentioned in the instruction manual.) Unrelated words are eliminated from the vocabulary statistics process and synonyms are merged. If you have interested friends, you can leave a message or communicate by private message. ）
Sheep Hunting Adventure Word Cloud
The word cloud has something to say
"Sheep", "we", "time", "mouse", "self", "sheep man", "start", "ear", "photo", "room", "dr. sheep", etc. are the more words that appear in the book, and these words roughly reflect the main content of the book.
The Adventure of finding sheep continues the characters "I", Rat and Jay from the previous two works. The rat disappears in the book, and "I" take the picture sent by the "rat" and start looking for the sheep. What exactly is the sheep and what is its symbol? I believe that this question also confuses many readers.
Some say that the sheep is "a symbol of the Mongol will to conquer the world", while others say that the sheep is hidden in the evil existence of Japanese society. What exactly the sheep is, I'm afraid Murakami himself can't say clearly.
The process of finding the sheep is also the process of the protagonist's self-search and redemption, getting rid of the repetitive and tired life and finding the meaning of life.
In the end, "I" finished the sheep hunt and returned to my original life, "although this world is mediocre and boring, it is my world after all."
