Have you read any other Haruki Murakami books HappyMartin? I think your finding "that the book flows" and keeps you thinking while still being mundane is the central feeling of most of his books. Somehow, his descriptions of a man cooking pasta then answering a phone, or a lady stuck in traffic and choosing to exit via highway ladder leads to mystery. The appearance of the two moons may have some deeper symbolism than the surface senses, but it seems that Murakami simply writes a tangled story with strange turns...but his characters react as most of us would if two moons appear...internal questioning or just simply carrying on with the routines of this strange world.
