Her Town, Her Sheep

by MURAKAMI Haruki

Translated by Kiki

The first snow of the year has started to fall on the streets of Sapporo in northern Japan. It began as rain and then it changed to snow. It didn’t take long before it had changed back to rain. However on the streets of Sapporo snow really isn’t that romantic. It’s about as welcome as an unpopular relative. It is Friday October 23.

When I left Tokyo on a 747 from Narita airport, I was wearing only a T-shirt. It started to snow before I had finished listening to my 90-minute tape on my walkman.

“That sounds about par for the course,” my friend said to me. “We generally get the first snowfall of the year about now, and then it turns cold.”
