It is sure to be a literary event. Toru, a quiet and preternaturally serious young college student in Tokyo, is devoted to Naoko, a beautiful and introspective young woman, but their mutual passion is marked by the tragic death of their best friend years before.  Toru begins to adapt to campus life and the loneliness and isolation he faces there, but Naoko finds the pressures and responsibilities of life unbearable.  As she retreats further into her own world, Toru finds himself reaching out to others and drawn to a fiercely independent and sexually liberated young

on the Shore]]></title><description><![CDATA[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.]]></description><link>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C808976</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C808976</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Murakami, Haruki]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2005 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/808976086</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781400079278/MC.GIF&amp;client=greenwich&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Wild Sheep Chase]]></title><description><![CDATA[It begins simply enough: A twenty-something advertising executive receives a postcard from a friend, and casually appropriates the image for an insurance company's advertisement.

It is through this wormhole that she enters Murakami's surreal yet humane universe, to which she serves as guide both for us and for her frustrated suitor, now a teacher. In the course of her travels from parochial Japan through Europe and ultimately to an island off the coast of Greece, she disappears without a trace, leaving only lineaments of her fate: computer accounts of bizarre events and stories within stories. The teacher, summoned to assist in the search for her, experiences his own ominous, haunting visions, which lead him nowhere but home to Japan--and there, under the expanse of deep space and the still-orbiting Sputnik, he finally achieves a true understanding of his beloved.]]></description><link>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1048023</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1048023</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Murakami, Haruki]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2002 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1048023086</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780375726057/MC.GIF&amp;client=greenwich&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[South of the Border, West of the Sun]]></title><description><![CDATA[A successful Japanese nightclub owner, husband, and father risks everything to be reunited with his childhood sweetheart.]]></description><link>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1010765</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1010765</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Murakami, Haruki]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2000 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1010765086</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780679767398/MC.GIF&amp;client=greenwich&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Elephant Vanishes]]></title><description><![CDATA[Contains seventeen short fiction stories by Haruki Murakami about people whose lives veer off the path of normalcy.]]></description><link>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1011264</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1011264</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Murakami, Haruki]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 1994 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1011264086</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780679750536/MC.GIF&amp;client=greenwich&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[1Q84]]></title><description><![CDATA[An ode to George Orwell's "1984" told in alternating male and female voices relates the stories of Aomame, an assassin for a secret organization who discovers that she has been transported to an alternate reality, and Tengo, a mathematics lecturer and novice writer.]]></description><link>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1003501</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1003501</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Murakami, Haruki]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2011 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1003501086</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780307957023/MC.GIF&amp;client=greenwich&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Wild Sheep Chase]]></title><description><![CDATA[It begins simply enough: A twenty-something advertising executive receives a postcard from a friend, and casually appropriates the image for an insurance company's advertisement.

These first major works of fiction by Haruki Murakami center on two young men--an unnamed narrator and his friend and former roommate, the Rat. Powerful, at times surreal, stories of loneliness, obsession, and eroticism, these novellas bear all the hallmarks of Murakami's later books, giving us a fascinating insight into a great writer's beginnings, and are remarkable works of fiction in their own right. Here too is an exclusive essay by Murakami in which he explores and explains his decision to become a writer. Prequels to the much-beloved classics A Wild Sheep Chase and Dance Dance Dance, these early works are essential reading for Murakami completists and contemporary fiction lovers alike."]]></description><link>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1133086</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1133086</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Murakami, Haruki]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2015 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1133086086</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Two Early Novels</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780385352123/MC.GIF&amp;client=greenwich&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Murakami Haruki zatsubunshū]]></title><link>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1270232</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1270232</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[jpn]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Murakami, Haruki]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2015 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1270232086</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle/><language>jpn</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9784101001678/MC.GIF&amp;client=greenwich&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item></channel></rss>
