Norwegian Wood

by: Haruki Murakami (author)

3.80 100

Powieść "Norwegian Wood", opublikowana w 1987 przyniosła Murakami Haruki ogromny rozgłos. Napisana w Grecji i we Włoszech jest książką, którą przeczytał "każdy" w Japonii. Sam autor mówi, że było to dla niego wyznanie - "Nigdy nie napisałem tego typu prostej powieści i chciałem się sprawdzić". Wiele osób myślało, że jest to powieść autobiograficzna, ale tak nie jest. "Gdybym napisał prawdę o moim własnym życiu, powieść nie miałaby więcej niż 15 stron."

Akcję umieścił autor w późnych latach 60-tych, symbolem etosu tych lat jest tytułowa piosenka Beatlesów "Norwegian Wood". Bohaterem jest młody człowiek Toru, zafascynowany piękną Naoko. Ich uczucie jest obciążone samobójczą śmiercią wspólnego przyjaciela i słabą konstrukcją psychiczną Naoko. Dramatyczne przeżycia bohaterów robią na czytelniku duże wrażenie.

A few years ago I read "What I talk about when I talk about running" which was an introduction to the wonderful world and easy writing style of Haruki Murakami. Why it has taken me so long to read more of his works I do not understand but having just finished the astounding Norwegian Wood I plan to ...

Beautifully written and well executed. Unfortunately, by choosing the emotionally distant writing style it fails to move me as a reader.

text Norwegian Wood

"Norwegian Wood" is a curious book. The story follows an unconventionally stable plotline, with few twists, turns, rises, falls, or denouements. This book is a journey, a linear insight into the life and growth of our melancholic main character, Toru Watanabe. Some readers will tell you that this bo...

"I'm finished as a human being," she said. "All you're looking at is the lingering memory of what I used to be. The most important part of me, what used to be inside, died years ago, and I'm just functioning by auto-memory." p343
