High-class call girls billed to Mastercard. A psychic 13-year-old dropout with a passion for Talking Heads. A hunky matinee idol doomed to play dentists and teachers. A one-armed beach-combing poet, an uptight hotel clerk and one very bemused narrator caught in the web of advanced capitalist mayhem. Combine this offbeat cast of characters with Murakami's idiosyncratic prose and out comes Dance Dance Dance. It is an assault on the sense, part murder mystery, part metaphysical speculation; a fable for our times as catchy as a rock song blasting from the window of a sports car. (20021018)
##村上春樹的書真不適閤心情低落時閱讀——越讀胸口越有如被灌鉛般感受,整個人想大聲呐喊。海豚酒店、羊人、雪、中年人頹廢的心情⋯⋯
評分##這個翻譯甚是喜歡
評分##較中文版有幾處刪節,翻譯的也平易。三部麯加上這個算是圓滿。
評分##一貫的筆法,扭麯的情感。村上的書不能多看,人會變得神經衰弱。
評分##中文喜歡長句,英語更多短句,英文翻譯纔能讀齣來村上有多喜歡雷濛錢德勒。林少華的也不錯,但真的就像兩個世界。
評分##它寫說沒事可做的時候go to the barber's 我這樣做瞭 說實話我一度很嫉妒“我”可以無所事事地等待命運傳喚 身為村上筆下的角色從不缺錢 但我想“我”經曆的孤獨是值得同情的 故事的尾聲時我也好想牽住yumiyoshi的手
評分##People are dying around me.
評分##Audible 21/01. The English version is absolutely fantastic! I start to enjoy murakami’s work. “I” was looking for something that was tangible; was trying to get back a tractable life. Or had my life ever been controlled? Such a feeling of powerlessness becomes severer once getting elder.
