About the author

Haruki Murakami

605 books132k followers
Haruki Murakami (村上春樹) is a Japanese writer. His novels, essays, and short stories have been best-sellers in Japan and internationally, with his work translated into 50 languages and having sold millions of copies outside Japan. He has received numerous awards for his work, including the Gunzo Prize for New Writers, the World Fantasy Award, the Tanizaki Prize, Yomiuri Prize for Literature, the Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award, the Noma Literary Prize, the Franz Kafka Prize, the Kiriyama Prize for Fiction, the Goodreads Choice Awards for Best Fiction, the Jerusalem Prize, and the Princess of Asturias Awards.
Growing up in Ashiya, near Kobe before moving to Tokyo to attend Waseda University, he published his first novel Hear the Wind Sing (1979) after working as the owner of a small jazz bar for seven years. His notable works include the novels Norwegian Wood (1987), The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle (1994–95), Kafka on the Shore (2002) and 1Q84 (2009–10); the last was ranked as the best work of Japan's Heisei era (1989–2019) by the national newspaper Asahi Shimbun's survey of literary experts. His work spans genres including science fiction, fantasy, and crime fiction, and has become known for his use of magical realist elements. His official website cites Raymond Chandler, Kurt Vonnegut and Richard Brautigan as key inspirations to his work, while Murakami himself has named Kazuo Ishiguro, Cormac McCarthy and Dag Solstad as his favourite currently active writers. Murakami has also published five short story collections, including First Person Singular (2020), and non-fiction works including Underground (1997), an oral history of the Tokyo subway sarin attack, and What I Talk About When I Talk About Running (2007), a memoir about his experience as a long distance runner.
His fiction has polarized literary critics and the reading public. He has sometimes been criticised by Japan's literary establishment as un-Japanese, leading to Murakami's recalling that he was a "black sheep in the Japanese literary world". Meanwhile, Murakami has been described by Gary Fisketjon, the editor of Murakami's collection The Elephant Vanishes (1993), as a "truly extraordinary writer", while Steven Poole of The Guardian praised Murakami as "among the world's greatest living novelists" for his oeuvre.

Не пройшло і чотирьох років як я осилила цю книгу.
Муракамі радіо 2, як і Муракамі радіо 1, це найліпші книги Муракамі, на мою думку. Його буденний нон-фікшн, короткі атмосферні прості записи про життя і все на світі, які ми дуже любимо, бо глибоко розуміємо, або ж хочемо, щоб це траплялось з нами.
(Всілякі фразочки типу "Коли я жив у Римі", "того разу, як подорожував Грецією", "коли викладав в університеті в Америці", "коли бігав кожного ранку у Швеції" написані настільки просто і без гордості, що мимоволі хочеш таке життя і собі, сповнене спокою і впевненості у своїй долі, справі, власних думках. Короче Муракамі якийсь Габен).
Якщо в цій серії будуть ще Муракамі радіо 4, 5, 25, 140, я читатиму. От тільки не японською бо це бісова мова яку вигадав сам диявол.

9月只看完這一本散文集。

假若問我:100%鐘意村上春樹啲書?答案是否定的。
但係有空就會看,村上缺點跟優點很明顯的寫作風格,有其魅力。

「於是我還沒弄清楚所以然,二十多歲的時代就手忙腳亂地過去了。它推開這邊這扇門走進來,就這麼穿堂而過,從那邊那扇門走了出去。」

「你在二十多歲時又是什麼樣子?或者說,
會經是什麼樣子?說實話,這是我真心想知道的問題。」

想起換乘戀愛2,男二源彬對女四智妍說,「很好奇你十年後的模樣。」
有人期待自己成長的模樣,真好。

Simple like haiku but has lessons in life with a keen insight, wit and sense of humor.

интересная ненавязчивая задумка. к некоторым главам так и хотелось мысленно добавить фразу: «дорогой дневник…».

«Мне кажется, что писателей в общем и целом можно охарактеризовать как людей, которые уделяют слишком много внимания довольно-таки странным (и бесполезным) вещам и событиям. Иногда зациклишься на чем-нибудь и поневоле ходишь и думаешь: «Ну, почему? Почему снова фигня-то такая?!»

иногда казалось, знаете, будто подслушиваешь самые сокровенные разговоры/монологи и чувствуешь по этому поводу мерзкую вину, но человек догадывается о вашем присутствии и никак этому не противится. напротив, начинает говорить громче и отчетливее, чтобы вы его лучше поняли.

小説もとても良いけど、人柄が垣間見える彼のエッセイも面白い。こういう視点から、小説にでてくる独特の形容表現が作られるのね、と妙に納得してしまう。

能把日常写成散文集的人真让人羡慕得很。话虽这么说,真要我也写一本出来,只怕有点困难哟。

这个summer break目前为止看到的最温暖的一部作品了(虽然颓废的summer break里也没看几本书)。
看murakami小说的时候那种时空交错和人物的迷茫感总把我带入到那个环境里,也未曾想去了解作家的生活和心灵。虽然村上也出了好几本散文和杂文,但这是第一本读到的,(《没有女人的男人们》上半年拿起后因为沉迷爆米花电影又放下了,现在想来也有丝丝后悔。)

但读书嘛,永远都不会迟的,只要自己想读,书永远在手边。兴许是因为yiyun li 的memoir读来实在是有些忧郁沉重,同时读两本书觉得村上那时的笔风慵懒轻松又沉着。做比较是不公平的,虽然都很喜欢,但是村上的的确确像是在和读者对话。能够读当时连载的日本读者真是幸运啊。

As well as his other essays, it was simple, amusing and laid-back. I like the way he writes about trivial things in his daily life. It was good enough to make me relaxed, but I was sorry that I took only 1 hour to finish even though I paid 1400 yen.

I did enjoy Murakami Radio 2. This one is quite readable with Murakami's witty humors. His sense of humor is almost like a comedian level, I thought.

清清爽爽又有趣的随笔集,每篇后面的插画也很是有意思,搭配起来感觉很棒~ 看似有些平淡无奇的碎碎念日常,也有独特的魅力。每篇都很短,带些小治愈,很适合作为睡前读物。
