This piece was inspired by the surreal imagery portrayed in Haruki Murakami's novel 'After Dark'. 

For me personally, the chapters where the narrator focuses on Eri Asai and her bedroom are the most intriguing due to the deliberate sense of mystery Murakami conveys, removing her of any human qualities and almost portraying her as somewhat inhuman due to her unwavering 'deep sleep'.

Currently in the process of reading this novel (at the time of completion of the composition), I am becoming more and more fascinated with the ornate and descriptive idiom that Murakami
employs to draw interest about Eri Asai. 

We know she is physically stunning, almost in a mythical
sense, whilst the backdrop of her bedroom is eerily quiet and pristine, almost revolving around her.

This enabled me to create a very distinct, timbre-focused piece that portrays this eerily quiet and mysterious atmosphere, also full of surprises.
