Toru Watanabe un ejecutivo de 37 anos escucha casualmente mientras aterriza en un aeropuerto europeo una vieja cancion de los Beatles y la musica le hace retroceder a su juventud al turbulento Tokio de finales de los sesenta. Toru recuerda con una mezcla de melancolia y desasosiego a la inestable y misteriosa Naoko la novia de su mejor y unico amigo de la adolescencia Kizuki. El suicidio de este les distancia durante un ano hasta que se reencuentran en la universidad. Inician alli una relacion intima; sin embargo la fragil salud mental de Naoko se resiente y la internan en un centro de reposo. Al poco Toru se enamora de Midori una joven activa y resuelta. Indeciso sumido en dudas y temores experimenta el deslumbramiento y el desengano alla donde todo parece cobrar sentido: el sexo el amor y la muerte. La situacion para el para los tres se ha vuelto insostenible; ninguno parece capaz de alcanzar el delicado equilibrio entre las esperanzas juveniles y la necesidad de encontrar un lugar en el mundo. Con un fino sentido del humor Murakami ha escrito el conmovedor relato de una educacion sentimental pero tambien de las perdidas que implica toda maduracion. Tokio blues supuso el reconocimiento definitivo del autor en su pais donde se convirtio en un best seller.

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

4.0 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
