“The Elephant Vanishes” is an old Japanese short story that was published in 1993. It was written by an intelligent Japanese author named Murakami Haruki. He is a well-respected writer, who wrote this story by using a clear and calm tone. He uses this technique to develop his theme of unbalance that mixes with reality with a fictional plot. To develop the theme, Haruki creates a strong narrator, who tries to maintain his sanity from feeling unbalance. However, when the narrator could not, he continues to investigate the missing elephant. Later in the story, the narrator noticed how the elephant’s absences changed his behavior, and lost control of himself. Murakami established a strong, effective narrator, symbolism of unbalance, and imagery to portray his theme of unbalance for “The Elephant Vanishes.”
