聽風的歌 [Book] Douban
風の歌を聴け
村上春樹創作的起點 群像新人賞授獎作
創作四十週年紀念新版
一切都會過去,誰也沒有辦法抓住。
我們就是這樣活著。
輕微的南風,送來海的香味和曝曬的柏油氣味,使我想起從前的夏天。
女孩子肌膚的溫暖、古老的搖滾樂、剛洗好的 button-down 襯衫、在游泳池更衣室抽的菸味、微妙的預感,都是一些永遠沒有止境的夏天甜美的夢。
然後有一年夏天夢再也沒回來過。
我們努力想認識的東西,和實際上認識的東西之間,橫跨著一道深淵。不管你拿多長的尺,都無法測量出那深度來。我能在這裡寫出來的,只不過是list而已。既不是小說也不是文學,更不是藝術。只是正中央畫1條線的一本單純的筆記而已。
四十年前,村上春樹以第一本小說《聽風的歌》躍登日本文壇。寫作時的他時年二十九歲,還只是個默默無名的爵士樂酒吧老闆。回憶起寫作的契機,那是一個和平常一樣白天去附近神宮球場看棒球的好日子。晴朗的天空,鮮嫩的草坪,外加球被打擊出去的輕脆聲響,在這個瞬間村上萌生了「不如來寫小說看看吧」的念頭,於是,不久後就誕生了《聽風的歌》。村上在《村上朝日堂是如何鍛鍊的》中回憶道:「在我自己的意識當中,可說是在這一天,在神宮球場的外野席上,已經成為一個作家了。」
小說於隔年出版,也開啟了村上初期所謂「青春三部曲」的序曲。第一人稱的「我」、「我」的好友老鼠,還有傑,都登場了,他們的故事在之後出版的《1973年的彈珠玩具》和《尋羊冒險記》中,繼續被述說。
《聽風的歌》這本小說的形式非常特別,除了跳接的敘事,還穿插許多村上式的格言、寓言,以及廣播節目DJ的單口相聲,緩緩的節奏就像夏天的風一樣輕輕拂過面頰。故事中的「我」和好友老鼠看似日復一日過著與啤酒、女人相伴的日子,卻感覺跟這個世界非常疏離,「我」從酒吧「撿回」一個喝得爛醉、少了一隻小指的女孩,出身有錢人家的老鼠看什麼都不順眼,失戀之後決定開始寫小說……,他們的青春美好卻虛無,因為「一切都會過去,誰也沒有辦法抓住。」
村上春樹在書中〈給台灣讀者的一封信〉寫道:「小說這東西,並不是對一個問題給予一個具體結論的東西。我想做的是,把你所有的問題,和我(或其他什麼人)所有的問題,通過所謂故事這個強有力的隧道直接聯繫上,不管在地球上的任何地方,不管有什麼樣的問題,你絕對不是孤獨的。」
相信讀著《聽風的歌》的你,因為共享了小說裡的這份美好的虛無,所以其實也並不孤獨。

スプートニクの恋人 [Book] Douban
22歳の春にすみれは生まれて初めて恋に落ちた。広大な平原をまっすぐ突き進む竜巻のような激しい恋だった。それは行く手のかたちあるものを残らずなぎ倒し、片端から空に巻き上げ、理不尽に引きちぎり、完膚なきまでに叩きつぶした。そして勢いをひとつまみもゆるめることなく大洋を吹きわたり、アンコールワットを無慈悲に崩し、インドの森を気の毒な一群の虎ごと熱で焼きつくし、ペルシャの砂漠の砂嵐となってどこかのエキゾチックな城塞都市をまるごとひとつ砂に埋もれさせてしまった。みごとに記念碑的な恋だった。恋に落ちた相手はすみれより17歳年上で、結婚していた。更につけ加えるなら、女性だった。それがすべてのものごとが始まった場所であり、(ほとんど)すべてのものごとが終わった場所だった。とても奇妙な、ミステリアスな、この世のものとは思えない、書き下ろし長篇小説。
ねじまき鳥クロニクル〈第3部〉鳥刺し男編 [Book] Douban
僕の考えていることが本当に正しいかどうか、わからない。でもこの場所にいる僕はそれに勝たなくてはならない。これは僕にとっての戦争なのだ。「今度はどこにも逃げないよ」と僕はクミコに言った。「僕は君を連れて帰る」僕はグラスを下に置き、毛糸の帽子を頭にかぶり、脚にはさんでいたバットを手に取った。そしてゆっくりとドアに向かった。(本文より)
Von Männern, die keine Frauen haben [Book] Google Books
Enthält die Kurzgeschichte ›Drive my Car‹, auf der die gleichnamige Verfilmung von Ryūsuke Hamaguchi basiert, die als ›Bester internationaler Film‹ bei den Oscars 2022 ausgezeichnet wurde. ›Von Männern, die keine Frauen haben‹ versammelt sieben Erzählungen Murakamis – »long short stories«, die wohl zum Zartesten und Anrührendsten zählen, das je von ihm zu lesen war. Und doch sind sie typisch Murakami, denn fast immer geht es darin um versehrte, einsame Männer. Männer, denen etwas ganz Entscheidendes fehlt ... Mit ›Von Männern, die keine Frauen haben‹ wendet sich Japans wichtigster Autor nach sieben Jahren, in denen er mit großen Romanen wie ›1Q84‹ und ›Die Pilgerjahre des farblosen Herrn Tazaki‹ Welterfolge feierte, erstmals wieder der kürzeren Form zu. Es ist sein erster Band mit Erzählungen seit dem Publikumsliebling ›Als ich eines schönen Morgens im April das 100%ige Mädchen sah‹. Dieser Band enthält die Erzählungen: Drive my Car Yesterday Das eigenständige Organ Scheherazade Kinos Bar Samsa in Love Von Männern, die keine Frauen haben

Wie ich eines schönen Morgens im April das 100%ige Mädchen sah [Book] Google Books
Ungefähr zu der Zeit, als Jim Morrison „Light my fire" und Paul McCartney „Long and winding road" sangen, begegnet Haruki Murakamis Ich-Erzähler dem „100%igen Mädchen" – und lässt es fahrlässig ziehen. Er versucht so gut wie gar nicht, seiner Schwester den überaus vernünftigen Verlobten zu verleiden, tröstet sich mit virtuosem Rasenmähen über eine untreue Freundin hinweg, arbeitet in einer Fabrik, die künstliche Elefanten produziert, und träumt von einem wunderbar tanzenden Zwerg, dessen gefährliche Fähigkeiten er sich leiht. Murakamis lakonische Erzählungen kreisen um das, was man einst Schicksal nannte – eine vielleicht selbsterschaffene, stets überraschend aufschimmernde Macht –, sie haben seine deutschsprachigen Leser ebenso in Entzücken versetzt wie vorher schon ein japanisches Millionenpublikum. Dieser Band enthält die folgenden Erzählungen: "Wie ich eines schönen Morgens im April das 100%ige Mädchen sah" "Lederhosen" "Familiensache" "Das Fenster" "TV-People" "Das Schweigen" "Das grüne Monster" "Der tanzende Zwerg" "Der letzte Rasen am Nachmittag. Die Erzählung "Wie ich eines schönen Morgens im April das 100%ige Mädchen sah" wurde 1983 von Naoto Yamakawa verfilmt. Murakamis Roman „Naokos Lächeln“ wurde 2010 unter dem englischen Titel „Norwegian Wood“ verfilmt.
Wind/Pinball: Two Novels [Book] Sukkertoppen
Discover Haruki Murakami's first two novels.
'If you're the sort of guy who raids the refrigerators of silent kitchens at three o'clock in the morning, you can only write accordingly.
That's who I am.'
Hear the Wind Sing and Pinball, 1973 are Haruki Murakami's earliest novels. They follow the fortunes of the narrator and his friend, known only by his nickname, the Rat. In Hear the Wind Sing the narrator is home from college on his summer break. He spends his time drinking beer and smoking in J's Bar with the Rat, listening to the radio, thinking about writing and the women he has slept with, and pursuing a relationship with a girl with nine fingers.
Three years later, in Pinball, 1973 , he has moved to Tokyo to work as a translator and live with indistinguishable twin girls, but the Rat has remained behind, despite his efforts to leave both the town and his girlfriend. The narrator finds himself haunted by memories of his own doomed relationship but also, more bizarrely, by his short-lived obsession with playing pinball in J's Bar. This sends him on a quest to find the exact model of pinball machine he had enjoyed playing years earlier: the three-flipper Spaceship.

1Q84 Books 1-2
The year is 1984 and the city is Tokyo.
A young woman named Aomame follows a taxi driver’s enigmatic suggestion and begins to notice puzzling discrepancies in the world around her. She has entered, she realizes, a parallel existence, which she calls 1Q84 —“Q is for ‘question mark.’ A world that bears a question.” Meanwhile, an aspiring writer named Tengo takes on a suspect ghostwriting project. He becomes so wrapped up with the work and its unusual author that, soon, his previously placid life begins to come unraveled.
A love story, a mystery, a fantasy, a novel of self-discovery, a dystopia to rival George Orwell’s—1Q84 is Haruki Murakami’s most ambitious undertaking yet: an instant best seller in his native Japan, and a tremendous feat of imagination from one of our most revered contemporary writers

羊をめぐる冒険 [Book] Goodreads Douban
羊をめぐる冒険 [Hitsuji o meguru bōken]
His life was like a recurring nightmare: a train to nowhere. But an ordinary life has a way of taking an extraordinary turn. Add a girl whose ears are so exquisite that, when uncovered, they improve sex a thousand-fold, a runaway friend, a right-wing politico, an ovine-obsessed professor and a manic-depressive in a sheep outfit, implicate them in a hunt for a sheep, that may or may not be running the world, and the upshot is another singular masterpiece from Japan's finest novelist.
Murakami T [Book] Google Books
The international literary icon opens his eclectic closet: Here are photographs of Murakami’s extensive and personal T-shirt collection, accompanied by essays that reveal a side of the writer rarely seen by the public.
Many of Haruki Murakami's fans know about his massive vinyl record collection (10,000 albums!) and his obsession with running, but few have heard about a more intimate passion: his T-shirt collecting.
In Murakami T, the famously reclusive novelist shows us his T-shirts—from concert shirts to never-worn whiskey-themed Ts, and from beloved bookstore swag to the shirt that inspired the iconic short story "Tony Takitani." These photographs are paired with short, frank essays that include Murakami's musings on the joy of drinking Guinness in local pubs across Ireland, the pleasure of eating a burger upon arrival in the United States, and Hawaiian surf culture in the 1980s.
Together, these photographs and reflections reveal much about Murakami's multifaceted and wonderfully eccentric persona.
