村上春樹 / 1Q84


Haruki Murakami / 1Q84

村上春樹 / 1Q84



I just experienced specific feeling that seems to be between real and unreal world after reading Haruki Murakami's latest novel "1Q84".


In this novel, there are a lot of impressive phrases and suggestions. I wrote them down in my notebook and finally the number of them reached ... a lot.



His interview in COURRIER Japon in the 2009 July issue, I found his interesting point of view.


-(Haruki Murakami)- What I think during writing a story and what people think by reading it don't need to be the same. Most of what I write are improvisatory and self-motivated. Even I myself can't explain them. Readers have a right to think that the stories are their own one.



The works of Murakami give us opportunities to think about myself, society and the thing between them.

 

The works of Murakami make us think about another capabilities that could happen in the real world. 

 




村上春樹独特の、読み終わった後の現実と非現実を行ったり来たりするようなもやもやした感じを今、味わっている。

文中には多くの印象的なフレーズや示唆が溢れており、それをノートに書付けながら読んでいたらかなりの量になった。



彼はクーリエジャポン2009年7月号でのインタビューで以下のように述べている。


僕が書くときに思うことと、読者がそれを読んで思うことが一致する必要はありません。僕が書くものの多くは即興的で、自発的なものです。僕自身にも説明がつかない。読者は物語を自分固有のものにする権利を持っています。



村上文学は自分や、社会と対話するきっかけを与えてくれる。


本当はあり得たかもしれない現実を考えさせてくれる。

村上春樹 / 1Q84


"Haruki Murakami / 1Q84"

"村上春樹 / 1Q84"



A new full-length novel written by Haruki Murakami was out a couple of days ago. The last one called "Kafka on the Shore" was out seven years ago.


Though I only read the first chapter, I was thrilled with his way of writing that contained realistic and unrealistic depiction at the same time.


Where is his imagination gonna take us next??


I'll read it with appreciation.





でました。


村上春樹「海辺のカフカ」以来7年ぶりの長編小説。


第一章だけ読んでみたのですが、現実感と非現実感が絶妙に入り交じったあのゾクゾク感がいきなりやってきました。


今度はどんな世界を見せてくれるのでしょうか。


これから少しずつ味わいながら読んでいこうと思います。
