What's your favourite book by the master of comfy /lit/, Haruki Murakami?
>>24843889South of the Border, West of the Sun. This man knows what it is to yearn.
>>24843889I've only read the Norwegian Wood and I have to say, Japs aren't very good writers. Their society is too restrictive for any sort of genius to emerge.
>>24843889I honestly forgot every single thing about all the Murakami books I have read. I cannot say a thing about a specific book of his, except 1Q84 which I had to drop because it was plain shit. His other books were like a dream that you forget once you're awake. Which may read like a compliment but it's not. My favorite was probably Kafka on the Shore but it might have been Norwegian Wood, or some other popular book he wrote. I only remember the titles.
>>24843889What translation do I read for him?I know he famously had translations missing up to 100 pages cut from them which sounds like a huge mess
>>24843889>South of the Border, West of the SunI can't believe I read thisThe only part I liked was when she finally gets on her knees chokes on his dick and swallows his cum.
>>24843889Probably Sputnik. This >>24844003 is up there though.
>>24844868That only happened to WUBC iirc
>>24843889uncle tomu
>>24845921Hardboiled Wonderland too. It wasn't a one time thing but all of them for a while
>>24845921One novel where the big twist is certain parts took place in the past had all of the past sections written in different tenses than the present day section.So you know that readers knew in advanced
