  1. New books added to my TBR pile!

    I just finished After Dark and loved the disturbing atmosphere Haruki Murakami created.

    Now 1Q84 looks like the same as After Dark. I can’t wait to start it soon!

  5. Du point de vue styliste, le tac-o-tac de dialogues et sa phraséologie simple fait souvent penser à #村上春樹 #MurakamiHaruki, qui, peu étonnant, est un grand fan de #川上 #Kawakami. Fort heureusement, les sujets de ses romans sont beaucoup plus variés du côté des marges de la société, les névrotiques, les victimes de harcèlement, la mafia, les alcooliques – un précariat pas souvent digne des expériences littéraires de #Murakami (Haruki, pas l’autre, #村上龍 #MurakamiRyū, lui, il l’en fait plein de ce genre). Dommage que ce livre soit situé uniquement à Tōkyō, ce qui laisse peu d’occasions de jouer sur l’accent d’Ōsaka si souvent de rigueur dans les précédents. 2/2

  6. Murakami Haruki wrote a book called “Underground” about the people who were impacted by this. The long term physical and mental health effects are so sad. Japanese society didn’t treat the victims well.

  7. Summer Fishing in Lapland by Juhani Karila

    Chose this book after browsing the shelves at the local library. Been so long since I’ve done that.

    Haruki Murakami meets Lapland is my overall impression. Not that the author is mimicking Murakami but the over-the-shoulder, we are experiencing things as they happen, style of writing and whimsy- ala Harboiled Wonderland, A Wild Sheep Chase or Windup Bird Chronicle.

    So happy I stumbled across this book.

  8. Sometimes I’m astonished how much my early adulthood was influenced by Sakamoto and also by Murakami Haruki. Fresh out out university, moved to a new country - maybe not so surprising. But the soundtrack of Sakamoto and the script of Murakami still influences and reflects who I am today.

    And, damn, Coda is an amazing documentary

  9. Reading Murakami Haruki’s first book “Hear the Wind Sing” and for some reason suddenly thought of al fresco dining in Japan. I remember multiple people in Japan in the early 90s trying to tell me that Japanese people don’t like eating outdoors. Yet they sit outside, drink, eat and sing under the cherry trees, and rooftop beer gardens were all the rage. But a café with outdoor seating was an anomaly. Go figure

  10. Finally reading Murakami Haruki “Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki” after many years of having bought the book. As always an uncanny style of writing like you are actually watching a person’s life and a pace that I’ve always thought of as a “walking style”. Can’t really ever explain it but it has a stride that just feels comfortable. Maybe it comes from his running.

  11. Reread after many years, didn't get it then (if there is something to get). The merit of the author is conveying a story at the same time completely absurd and totally plausible. What else is there to do than to chase a starred psycho-possessing sheep in the Northern Japanese wilderness? Also laconically funny parts, you sense uncertain danger but mostly you just follow this young bored and boring man faithfully treading his destined path. #MurakamiHaruki #2024Reads #bookstodon #books

  12. Heard about the Bookbar cafe in London and decided to cross the city to visit.

    Very small and cozy.

    Got my hands on Novelist as a Vocation by Murakami.

    And oh boy I can find so much stuff I would love to quote already.

    But I have a book to read and a coffee to drink, so that will have to wait.
