具體描述
Kafka on the Shore is powered by two remarkable characters: a teenage boy, Kafka Tamura, who runs away from home either to escape a gruesome oedipal prophecy or to search for his long-missing mother and sister; and an aging simpleton called Nakata, who never recovered from a wartime affliction and now is drawn toward Kafka for reasons that, like the most basic activities of daily life, he cannot fathom.
As their paths converge, and the reasons for that convergence become clear, Haruki Murakami enfolds readers in a world where cats talk, fish fall from the sky, and spirits slip out of their bodies to make love or commit murder. Kafka on the Shore displays one of the world’s great storytellers at the peak of his powers.

##“I want you to remember me. If you remember me, then I don’t care if everybody else forgets.”
##好書不需要讀懂
##死而後生
Truly" An insistently metaphysical mind-bender." 用這本書結束瞭我的2011年。都是日語翻譯來的，但我也強烈推薦讀更加有衝擊力的英文版。Murakami's words contain the power that keeps stirring up something deep in my heart. Loved it, but I only wish I'd read it when I was fifteen. It's a book that I'll definitely have go back to, every once in a while. Simply marvelous.
##沒有中文版那麼色情。差評。
##現在纔讀村上蠻好的，小時候讀的話可能讀到進入森林就覺得是終點，陷在夢境與時間裏的描寫真的蠻美妙的。現在大概能理解走齣夢境纔是真正的tough。
##真的是太適閤當旅途讀物瞭。
##善於設置懸念，情節的展開每每齣人意料，凝縮緊湊，漫溢著誘使讀者手不釋捲地一氣讀完全篇的牽引力。夢在這部小說中似乎具有隱喻的意義。村上摧毀瞭夢與真實、現實與超現實、此世與彼世之間難以攀越的高牆，填平瞭橫亙於人世與異界之間不可逾越的鴻溝，創立瞭一整套獨自的邏輯話語。人物塑造也特點鮮明
