If Murakami is correct, to loose one's shadow is to slowly died, to be incomplete.
But what if an individual becomes shadow without a shadow, because each individual has been hollowed out by the powers the be and all that remains is our shadowed self, waiting to be disintegrated into nothingness.

That would be i teresting, but, if Murakami is correct, to loose one's shadow is to slowly died, to be incomplete.

Where my use of us becoming shadows shows we have been hollowed out by the powers the be and all that remains is our shadowed self.
