r/books. • 8 yr. ago. NihilistPotato. I just read the story "New York Mining Disaster" by Haruki Murakami. It's a great, intriguing story but what's the ending all about? The story is about a man who has to attend lots of funerals of his friends, who are dying in short interval.
Somewhere in a mining shaft, presumably in New York, miners blow out candles and remain silent to save oxygen. They hear axes and the sound of life. They waited for hours. It was as if this was all happening in a faraway world; a long time ago; or in the distant future. Outside, people were digging and trying to reach them.
