I just started rereading Norwegian Wood. The only Murakami I never quite finish. I don't know why. Some of it touches nerves. Some of it is just too distant. Passages here and there exemplify Murakami's brilliance, and some of my favorite moments in his work come from that book. It doesn't feel like an early effort, where styles and themes just haven't clicked together yet. It's complete, in its own way. I just never finish it.
They'll always have me, anyway, those three. Even if there's Norwegian Wood and the way it finds itself back on a shelf before anyone sees it through. |
