Not what I was expecting…but in a good way 😅 Toru Okada’s search for his missing cat and then missing wife turns his world upside down. A very odd bunch of characters help him, but not after first altering his perception of reality. This was my first #harukimurakami book and it was a lot more magical than I was expecting. The use of supernatural elements in a real world setting had me questioning reality at the end. I found the descriptions so smooth and believable that it had me wanting more and being super grateful that this was actually three books in one. #100bookschallenge #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #booksbooksbooks #readmorebooks #readersgonnaread #readersofinstagram #readers #translatedfiction #vintagejapan #windupbirdchronicles #thewindupbirdchronicle
I read my first #murakami - #norwegianwood in 2022 and I haven’t stopped thinking about it ever since ! I gifted myself this #prelovedcopy of #kafkaontheshore by #harukimurakami last year to commemorate my third anniversary and 9k followers on Bookstagram ✨🤌 I left it on my shelf for a year intimidated by its size and theme. Fast forward 2024, its safe to say it has become one of my favourite books ever. Thanks to Krishna from (@krishnachandraeluri ) for buddy reading this with me we had such a good time discussing it . We should read more books together man 😅🙌 Kafka on the shore; originally written in Japanese and translated to English is an amazing genre-bending fiction story. We follow two timelines in the book one is of a 15yr old Kafka who runs away from home in a hope to escape fate ! The other is Nakata a 70 yr old man who has a strange gift of communicating with cats . Due to a tragic accident in his childhood Nakata is mentally handicapped and He lives a rather reclusive and plain life due to his disability I have no idea what to say about the plot because it’s one crazy ride . If you have read the book you know what I am talking about. Its best to go in knowing nothing like I did. The teller of tales, the master story-teller , with his highest level of imagination cannot disappoint you. There will be no dull moment with this one 😅 I highly recommend this book to everyone esp if you like reading magical-realism/ surrealism A 500 page #literaryfiction is nothing less than a commitment but also doesn’t Murakami make the mundane magical ? ✨ Q: Can you recommend me a book with magical realism / surrealism as theme? Or tell me your favourite sub-genres/themes in books
The wind-up bird chronicles de Haruki Murakami 🐦⚙️ J'ai lu ce livre pour mon top 100 et honnêtement il m'a pris énormément de temps à lire. La plume de Murakami est magnifique ❤️. Par contre, l'histoire était trop décousue et confusante avec des éléments surnaturels pour que je l'aime vraiment. J'ai préféré certaine histoires ajoutées (Side Stories) que l'histoire principale qui était vraiment juste étrange. Je pense que j'essayerais d'autre roman de Murakami mais plus court puisque celui-ci était près de 620 pages. J'ai apprécié mais je ne pense pas le relire un jour. 6⭐/10 #harukimurakami #windupbirdchronicles #thewinduobirdchronicles #book #books #livre #livres #bookstagram #livrestagram

Kafka on the Shore won the World Fantasy award in 2006, the year after its first English release in 2005. Readers of Murakami will recognize similar themes and motifs to his other works (the commonality of music, parallel narratives, a lost cat, dreams, metaphysics, fate) interspersed throughout the interrelated stories of young Kafka Tamura and Satoru Nakata. It was listed on the New York Times’ list of 10 best books released in 2005. Murakami has described the novel as containing several riddles. He says that they can only be solved through the interaction of all of the riddles together. After the story’s initial release Murakami’s Japanese publisher allowed people to write in to its website and ask questions. They received over 8,000, around 1,200 of which Murakami personally responded to. He suggests reading his stories several times before trying to piece the riddles together. Classic Murakami, am I right? Love him or hate him this is a really gorgeously designed book. This is the First Thus in Very Good+ condition. It was released without a dust jacket but bottom band is intact. ______________ SOLD!

🐦 The Wind Up Bird Chronicles by Haruki Murakami (Review) ⭐⭐⭐ 1/2 14 days to read this book before I had to return it. (I was a day late as well, ooops.) What a time! I enjoyed myself immensely. If this year is about changing my reading habits then reading a large book a little bit at a time is definitely something to adopt in future. The book itself fascinates me, not because I particularly loved it, but because I couldn't put my finger on why I liked it at all. I couldn't even make my mind up about the characters. Murakami has a way of writing alienation so that you feel alienated from the characters themselves. They are all puzzles to be solved and yet completely mystifying. I enjoyed the book's smaller elements: the well, the classical music, the cat. I love the way Murakami plays with reprating themes across stories. But women....women! I still think Murakami cannot write women. I loved the Kano sisters and I loved May Kasahara especially but I loved them IN SPITE of the narrator and author's treatment of them. Overall, an enjoyable experinece. Definitely not the last Murakami book I will read. Will eventually read Norwegian Wood....eventually.
🐦February reading challenge🐦: finish The Wind Up Bird Chronicles before my library loan expires. 42 pages a day for 14 days.
Diversify your bookshelf 📚:: For various reasons, my bookshelf is still mostly inhabited by North American, British or European authors. To change that, every year I’m trying to make a bit more of an effort to consciously choose books from different regions. So…🥁here are my 2022 highlights by Asian, Latin American, African and Australian authors! 🤩 New favourite 🤩 Die Chroniken des Aufziehvogels (The Wind-Up Bird Chronicles) by Haruki Murakami 🇯🇵🐦 - Another wonderfully strange, rollercoaster ride of a book by one of my favourite authors from Japan. You‘ll get out on the other side of the 1000 pages that somehow flew by in a second and keep wondering what just happened to you. ❤️ Would definitely recommend ❤️ The Yield by Tara June Winch 🇦🇺🌾- My first novel by an Australian indigenous author, unfolding the history and language of her people for us through the story of an expat returning to her rural family home. Im Park der prächtigen Schwestern (The Queens of Sarmiento Park) by Camila Sosa Villada 🇦🇷🏳️⚧️ - A page-turning, heart-breaking story around a group of trans women in Argentina and their struggle to stay strong, together - and alive. Purple Hibiscus by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie 🇳🇬👧🏾 - A coming of age story from Nigeria by one of my favourite authors, in which a girl starts discovering life’s opportunities beyond the strict rules of her oppressive Catholic family. Die schönsten Märchen aus Afrika 🌍🐊 - A collection of traditional African fairy tales from all over the continent, translated into German. 🧐 Was hoping for more, but had some good parts 🧐 Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe 🇳🇬🛖 - *The* classic African novel, written in 1958, depicting daily life in an Igbo village in rural Nigeria and the devastating arrival of British colonialists. The Fishermen by Chigozie Obioma 🇳🇬 👦🏾 - Critically acclaimed Nigerian family drama about four young brothers who helplessly see their whole life unravel before their eyes, until there is no turning back. #reading #flatlay #bookworm #booksofig #bookaholic #instabook #instaread #bookaddict #büchergram #lesen #diversifyyourbookshelf #coverliebe #coverlove #booksof2022
Haruki Murakami is my favourite Japanese author so far and also in my top three of authors with the most owned books. To be honest, I haven't read that many books by Japanese authors yet, but I'm remedying that. Murakami is one of those authors you find in most bookstores here so I guess that's why this happened 🤷🏼♀️ The first book I read by him was The wind-up bird chronicles, after that Kafka on the Shore. I read several others since and he has become an auto-buy author for me. So far in all of the fiction books I read of him, there were moments where I wondered what I was reading. There are a lot of magical elements in these books and I often find myself at a complete loss. But all that is made up by the fact that I love the writing. There are sentences that I just read over and over because I love them so much. Recently I also read the first non fiction book by Haruki Murakami (which is not featured in this photo). And I have to say that I loved it as well. So no matter if his books are fictional or not, I will keep buying them. Let's see if I actually get around to reading 1q84 next year. It might work better now I have a buddy wanting to join me for these 🥰 I've been interested in Japanese culture for a long time now, but I had fun finding other cultures this year and hope to expand that in 2023. Is there another culture you want to find out more about, or authors from that culture you want to read more from? #readingisfundamental #readingisfun #readingismytherapy #readersofinstagram #readersgonnaread #bookflatlay #bookdragon #booktrilogy #bookworm #bookrec #reading #buddyread #bookstagrammer #flemishbookstagrammer #belgianbookstagrammer #harukimurakami #windupbirdchronicles #kafkaontheshore #1q84 #japaneseauthor #authorlove #killingcommendatore

Say hi toh the little but precious MURAKAMI collection of mine. ⚡ Ps: I did read After Dark which was a borrowed copy so it didn't make it to the picture, and also I have Desire Vintage mini, which I couldn't find at that point. 😅 Q: Suggest a Murakami book you don't see in the picture. 🤷

QOTD: What's a book you've been meaning to read forever but never seem to get too? 💚 💚 💚 For me it's The Wind Up Bird Chronicles by Murakami. Its just so long, it's intimidating. Aswel, I have a love hate relationship with Murakami, so this could be one of his im not going to like so im not fully motivated to pick it up. In the past I loved one long book by him and two short story books but also did not enjoy a few other longer books... So many books and so little time, right now im only picking up books im really excited for, and this one I've just been curious about, but I'm not jumping out of bed in the morning to pick it up.... its on my shelf for about ten years, poor little book, probably feels forgotten. 💚 💚 💚 #BookCommunity #ReaderCommunity #ReadEveryDay #qotd💭 #ReaderProblems #bookworm #booknerdigans #IrishBookstas #bookcollector #bookhoarder #neverendingtbr #tbrbooks #tbrpilekeepsgrowing #tbrpost #booksikeepmeaningtoread #HarukiMurakami #WindUpBirdChronicles #weekendreads📚 #whatyareading #readergram #readersofireland #bookishresolutions #bookstagramfeature #booklover

I’ve never actually read any of Murakami’s work, but I have heard wonderful things about these two, so I’m starting there. . At least one of these will be part of my May TBR, any suggestions on which one? If you have read anything by Murakami, let me know in the comments! 💜
@harukimurakami.author why hasn’t he won the Nobel Prize yet!! We are so excited for his new book of short stories! What’s your favorite Murakami novel? #bnalmaden #bnblossomhill #murakami #windupbirdchronicles

Murakami tem uma obsessão por poços de água. É o segundo livro dele que leio e mais uma vez alguns personagens vão parar literalmente no fundo do poço, sejam como prisioneiros de guerra na Manchúria durante a guerra entre China e Japão ou mesmo na moderna Tóquio como local para fuga e reflexao. . O estilo de realismo mágico é característico em toda a obra do festejado escritor japonês. Neste Wind Up Bird Chronicles, ou Crônica do Pássaro de Corda no Brasil, não é tão exagerado. Um jovem casal vive os primeiros anos de casados em plena harmonia e sintonia quando algo começa a desandar após o sumiço do gato deles. Sem perceber, a rotina de trabalho-casa durante a semana vai desgastando a relação, assim como de tantos outros casais pelo mundo, até que a esposa do Sr. Okada simplesmente sai de casa sem muitas explicações. E em seguida perde o divórcio. . Vamos juntos com o protagonista tentar entender o que aconteceu, onde sua esposa está, por que ela saiu de casa e o que pretende sua família, principalmente o poderoso primo político dela que ele tanto odeia. Até torcemos pra rolar algo com a vizinha adolescente e meio pentelha, Miss Kasahara, que eu chamava de Peça Rara. . As efemérides do Amor, a maldade indissociável das sociedades modernas e a violência das guerras travadas pelo Japão estão presentes em toda a obra. As descrições do ex-combatente, veterano de guerra, sobre sua luta pela sobrevivência e a posterior convivência com seu iminente carrasco são impressionantes. . Achei que o livro poderia ser mais curto, mas Murakami é assim mesmo. Descreve com precisão o simples preparo de um café da manhã e nos faz estar ali dentro da cena, às vezes mesmo na mente dos personagens, acompanhando o desenrolar das tramas. . Será que agora vou encarar o colossal 1Q84?! A ver... #harukimurakami #windupbirdchronicles @audbible #audiobooks #audiolivros # literaturajaponesa #realismomagico

Bottom of the well 🕳️ 50.8x76.2 cm / 20x30" Oil on canvas 🕳️ I remember reading Haruki Murakamis Wind up bird chronicles years ago. There was a significant part of the story where the main character spends some time sitting at the bottom of the well contemplating. That image got stuck with me and I've been carrying it around for years. Bottom of the well is a place for transformation. Often in order to know that there's light out there you have to sit down in a real dark place. Be it a well, a cave, a hole in the ground, or a miserable patch of unsuccess in your life, regardless of how deep it is there's always gonna be some light above your head. Very often you just have to lift your eyes up. 🕳️ 🕳️ 🕳️ 🕳️ 🕳️ #contemporarypainting #paintercikarda #paintingart #painting #oilpaintings #oilonstretchedcanvas #lightattheendofthetunnel #harukimurakami #pointillism #abstractimpressionism #brushstrokes #windupbirdchronicles #arttherapy #scottishartist #lithuanianartist #thereisalwayshope #freeflow #holeinthewall #fineart #collectableart #hope #patternpainting #paint #art #artpaint #modernart #transformyourself #artwork #creativearts #visualarts
In a Tokyo suburb, a young man named Toru Okada searches for his wife’s missing cat—and then for his wife as well—in a netherworld beneath the city’s placid surface. As these searches intersect, he encounters a bizarre group of allies and antagonists. Gripping, prophetic, and suffused with comedy and menace, this is an astonishingly imaginative detective story, an account of a disintegrating marriage, and an excavation of the buried secrets from Japan’s forgotten campaign in Manchuria during World War II. Mesmerising and stunning, The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle is one of Haruki Murakami’s most acclaimed and beloved novels. . . . Order via DM or visit us to get your hands on this book. DM for any enquiry.

Haruki Murakami is a Japanese author that writes stories depicting magical realism and a whole lot of cats.

Toru Okada hears the wind-up bird then loses his cat, his wife, and his reality. The Wind-up Bird Chronicles is a dense and sometimes emotionally difficult novel. Intertwined with Toru’s magical realism tale of searching for his lost cat, wife, and life is a recurrent bubble of the events surrounding Japan at the end of World War II—heart-wrenching, horrific, and intensely engaging. It's a complicated story that ultimately leaves the reader mulling over Murakami's words in search of their own answers to Toru's conundrum. Four stars on Goodreads. #harukimurakami #windupbirdchronicles #bookstagram #magicalrealism

Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage by Haruki Murakami Abandoned by his friends without courtesy or reason Tsukuru Tazaki is lonely, depressed and suicidal. Saved in the nick of time by a dream that infuses the feeling of jealousy in him, Tsukuru limps back to life even as he puts a lid on his past. Till he meets Sara. Sara convinces Tsukuru to confront his repressed trauma. Until then, she warns him, he wouldn't truly heal, move on and carry on a meaningful and romantic relationship. To save his last shot at love, life and meaning, Tsukuru sets out to discover the truth. Truth that once pushed him perilously close to the edge. As Kafkaesque as ever, Murakami's 'Tsukuru' is partly realist and partly absurdist. An investigation into the themes of love and life, self and identity, loss and redemption, Murakami asks whether we ever win back the paradises we lost. Or, does the paradise remain one even after we are expelled? Through characteristic underplay yet soulful rendering, Murakami shows the ubiquitousness of pain that knows no bounds or boundaries. #harukimurakami #tsukurutazaki #yearsofpilgrimage #afterdark #windupbirdchronicles #wildsheepchase #blindwillowsleepingwoman #norwegianwood #indianbookreviewer #indianbookreview #malayalambookreview #bookbloggersofinstagram #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bibliophile #igreadsindia #igreads #kerala #thiruvananthapuram #booksbooksbooks #lockdownreads #bookphotography #booksbooksandmorebooks

Zero dollars invested! #fish #birds #portlandmaine #handmade #blockprint #blockprinting #windupbird #windupbirdchronicles #wanderingfishhead #sausage #reuse #repurpose

I’ve tried reading this 1100+ page epic multiple times. I don’t think I made it past 400 pages. However I recently downloaded it and have been listening while doing my regular day. I wanted to talk about it but the story is so obscure it doesn’t work for a business lunch. I don’t know if I loved it but this story invaded my life. I dreamt of it. I waited until morning to get back to it. I understand it’s an important read and I’m glad I now know the whole story so I can put it behind me. #windupbirdchronicles by #hirukimurakami was one of my favorite books ever and I know the #1Q84 is better known and has been given higher accolades but I prefer the wind up bird. #notabreezysummerread #alwaysacatinaharukinovel #twomoons
Red Light, Green Light 1-2-3. Do you remember that childhood game? This scene reminded me of it. It seemed every time the cardinal turned to eat, the woodpecker would hop up the tree, then would stop when the cardinal turned his head. Again, not a perfect shot, but it sure was entertaining 😁 #cardinal #cardinalvswoodpecker #windupbirdchronicles #birdsofinstagram #birdgames #redlightgreenlight #funnybirds #njbirds #njinbloom #njspots #myview #outsidemywindow

Happy birthday to one of my favorite writers, Haruki Murakami. Next up on my reading pile is his latest, Killing Commendatore. Looking forward to digging into that one after I get through The Haunting of Hill House. #harukimurakami #happybirthdayharukimurakami #killingcommendatore #1q84 #kafkaontheshore #hardboiledwonderlandandtheendoftheworld #colorlesstsukurutazaki #awildsheepchase #afterdark #windupbirdchronicles #southoftheborderwestofthesun
Ok nerds: what classical piece is this referencing? If you’ve read Murakami’s book, you’ll know that three bird pieces anchor the three sections. This is the second. . . .
