- Hello everyone and welcome to my latest book review. This time it's back to one of my favourite Japanese authors, Haruki Murakami. This was a book that many of you in the community recommended to me as one of his best books. What can I say? It certainly intrigued me, that's for sure.....I'll explain in the video.
I had to write a lot of notes for this book to try and make sense out of it as to what life lessons I could glean from it.
Over to you? Your thoughts on this book?

Good job 👍
Completely agreed with you. I just completed the book! And realized this genre is not for me! And Norwegian Wood was my very first book of Haruki Murakami’s.
And i was hoping Kafka on the shore would be that good. But i don’t know sometime this book doesn’t make any sense. Was Johnny Walker really dead? And who is this ‘boy named crow’ is it Kafka Tamura’s alter ego? I am really confused here!
We had to park our disbelief when reading this book or on the other hand, it was open to interpretation. There were too many open and confusing parts as your mind tried to understand. I thought Norwegian Wood was far better. Thanks for watching. 😊
His books are full of metaphors. I'm really enjoying them. I've read this book also.
Kafka on the Shore, is one of my favorite books of all times. Would love to read it again.
I decided to read it because I had put up a poll here some time ago and it was one of the books that many people raved about. (And a lot less pages than IQ84 which was also on the list)....
Wow, it sounds a 'bit' complex and complicated. Cruelty against cats or dogs or any other innocent animals is not for me. I admire your analysis but I don't think I would like to read it.
That's a fair call. I'd say stay away from another one I recently reviewed called Disgrace by J.M. Coetzee too if that's the case as there's animal cruelty in that too. Life's too short to read books that distress us.
