读过《First Person Singular》 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗
讀過之前兩本後我現在挺get村上的短篇的風格的。最喜歡的一篇不用說都肯定是「The Yakult Swallows Poetry Collection」，除了好笑和面對無止盡失敗的亞撒西（棒球本來就是the sports of failure嘛），那首「Outfielders' butts」簡直就是看Shohei（雖然不是OF）和Kiké時候的我的心聲😂 看Shohei時是他筆下的John Scott，看Kiké時是他筆下的Mike Reinbach😂😂
Book
First Person Singular Douban Min reol
一人称単数
A mindbending new collection of short stories from the unique, internationally acclaimed author of Norwegian Wood and The Wind-up Bird Chronicle.
The eight masterly stories in this new collection are all told in the first person by a classic Murakami narrator. From nostalgic memories of youth, meditations on music and an ardent love of baseball to dreamlike scenarios, an encounter with a talking monkey and invented jazz albums, together these stories challenge the boundaries between our minds and the exterior world. Occasionally, a narrator who may or may not be Murakami himself is present. Is it memoir or fiction? The reader decides.
Philosophical and mysterious, the stories in First Person Singular all touch beautifully on love and solitude, childhood and memory. . . all with a signature Murakami twist.
