review 1: کتاب تسوکورو تازاکی بدون رنگ و سالهای زیارتش را به انگلیسی خواندم. خیلی درگیر داستان شدم انقدری که هنوز دارم با داستان در ذهنم کلنجار می روم. شاید بیشتر بخاطر اینکه داستان من و تسوکورو تا حدی شبیه به هم بود. اما جدا از آن , موراکامی در به تصویر کشیدن تنهایی های انسان مدرن و مرز ب...

review 1: Short review: Read this book. Now.Less-short review: Got this book for Christmas and couldn't wait to tear into it. Although you'll easily digest it in under an hour, it's a memorable, exciting and full-immersive time. Murakami's latest offering is a novella but the short length ...

review 1: It's impossible for me to actually explain what this book is about because of the length and the separate plots, but it's somewhat fascinating. My problem is that there are too many questions left unanswered. There are many metaphorical guns shown early in the story that never ...

review 1: Well, what can I say! Totally enjoyed this one. Brilliant short story. I have tried Murakami before and have given up on him without finishing the books, but I am so glad I read this short story. I read it in one quick read and it was riveting to say the least. The fact that the ...

review 1: A beautifully bound artifact of a book. Actually, a beautifully bound artifact of a short short story, with facing-page graphics, colourful vignettes sliced from larger works of art, with an Andy Warhol feel about them. And each designed to add to the puzzle of this postmodern fa...

review 1: لم أرها كقصة، رأيتها أكثر كمادة واعدة لرواية طويلة. القصة تحكي عن "هابارا" الذي لا يستطيع مغادرة منزله "والسبب هُنا تركه موراكامي" مجهولًا.وتزوره "شهرزاد" كما يسميها لتزوده بالطعام وتراعي حاجته الجنسية. تعمل شهرزاد هُنا معاملة المنقذ.. شهرزاد في الحكاية الأصلية أنقذتها حكاياتها و...

review 1: First Tazaki book I've read. Probably not the best choice to read this before some of the others. From other reviews it sounds like his writing style and focuses have changed considerably over the last few years. Colorless is apparently a return to his previous style. The book wa...

review 1: I liked it. I did not love it (which is a disappointment in the context of my general abiding love for Mr. Murakami). I haven't minded before when the author covers familiar territory - and I didn't mind here, for the first 150ish pages of the book, which I found elegantly compel...

review 1: Một tập hợp những câu chuyện vừa phải, không quá khó để suy nghĩ, không quá dễ để bỏ qua. Có một vài truyện tôi không hiểu lắm ý tưởng của tác giả. Một vài truyện lại rất hài hước. Có thể thấy thêm cả một thế giới ẩm thực phong phú qua lời văn, câu chữ của tác giả. Mỗi món ăn lại...
