具體描述
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.

##第一次給村上君寫書評嘻嘻嘻 今晚會不會夢到自己和他打電話？ 以及真的炒雞喜歡John Coltrane的My Favorite Things
評分##在一片未知森林的遊蕩，密密麻麻的蜘蛛網，無法逃脫的某些。
評分##還剩9章，實在是水不完瞭，棄瞭。 不知道村上春樹看到自己年輕時寫的這玩意兒作何感想，如何評價。
評分##聽朋友說中譯本很難懂，但是我讀英文譯本發現並沒有很難，反而很吸引人，大概英文譯者真正理解瞭原著的精華吧
評分比起頗有爭議的中譯本，英譯本確實是順暢。但想不到這本曾經16歲時影響我最深的小說，這次第三次讀也就get over瞭，很高興我的審美和感知力在二十幾歲的時候終於上瞭個颱階。。村上的硬傷太明顯，everything is a metaphor，沒錯，但村上就喜歡把隱喻攤開來生怕彆人不知道他有這個牛逼的想法。。然後再掉掉文藝書袋，得得，確實沒有靈氣！但還是謝謝，烏鴉少年陪瞭我太多重要的時候 ><

評分##村上的日文小說翻譯成英文怎麼能這麼順呢？簡直好像原本就是英語寫作的。
評分##Haruki Murakami you are so great!
