村上春树(1949- ),日本小说家。曾在早稻田大学文学部戏剧科就读。1979年,他的第一部小说《听风之歌》问世后,即被搬上了银幕。随后,他的优秀作品《1973年的弹子球》、《寻羊冒险记》、《挪威的森林》等相继发表。他的创作不受传统拘束,构思新奇,行文潇洒自在,而又不流于庸俗浅薄。尤其是在刻画人的孤独无奈方面更有特色,他没有把这种情绪写成负的东西,而是通过内心的心智性操作使之升华为一种优雅的格调,一种乐在其中的境界,以此来为读者,尤其是生活在城市里的人们提供了一种生活模式或生命的体验。
With Kafka on the Shore, Haruki Murakami gives us a novel every bit as ambitious and expansive as The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle, which has been acclaimed both here and around the world for its uncommon ambition and achievement, and whose still-growing popularity suggests that it will be read and admired for decades to come.
This magnificent new novel has a similarly extraordinary scope and the same capacity to amaze, entertain, and bewitch the reader. A tour de force of metaphysical reality, it 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. Their odyssey, as mysterious to them as it is to us, is enriched throughout by vivid accomplices and mesmerizing events. Cats and people carry on conversations, a ghostlike pimp employs a Hegel-quoting prostitute, a forest harbors soldiers apparently unaged since World War II, and rainstorms of fish (and worse) fall from the sky. There is a brutal murder, with the identity of both victim and perpetrator a riddle–yet this, along with everything else, is eventually answered, just as the entwined destinies of Kafka and Nakata are gradually revealed, with one escaping his fate entirely and the other given a fresh start on his own.
Extravagant in its accomplishment, Kafka on the Shore displays one of the world’s truly great storytellers at the height of his powers.
##昨天才读完《海边的卡夫卡》,倒真如奥地利作家弗兰兹卡夫卡作品般荒谬,这本书拖拖踏踏读了差不多一个月才读完,看到最后一句时,总有种莫名的空虚感,却无法从中感到什么实质性的思考。直到隔了一天,午睡苏醒时才像是触电般感到——这是一个十五岁少年对荒谬世界的初步认知...
评分 评分 评分 评分##简说村上 我读村上的小说,要追溯到96年以前。那时国内还没兴起村上热。后来,陈丹燕在自己的都市白领小说中提及这个名字,很快地,读村上就成了一种小资文化的新标向,几米改编村上短篇小说而成的《向左走向右走》又无意间成了助燃剂。于是,98-02年间,村上春树...
评分##Haruki Murakami you are so great!
评分 评分##1.看完了《海边的卡夫卡》,觉得有些作家天赋就是写短篇的。写短篇与写长篇与其说是一种才能,不如说是天生的心性。(这么一说,我喜欢的作家几乎都是写中短篇的。写长篇的一个也没有。)写长篇首先需要的是一种结构力。这可不是普通的结构力,而是一种能够把读者“结构”进来...
