具体描述
In South of the Border, West of the Sun , the simple arc of a man's life--with its attendant rhythms of success and disappointment--becomes the exquisite literary terrain of Haruki Murakami's most haunting work.
Born in 1951 in an affluent Tokyo suburb, Hajime-- beginning in Japanese--has arrived at middle age wanting for almost nothing. The postwar years have brought him a fine marriage, two daughters, and an enviable career as the proprietor of two jazz clubs. Yet a nagging sense of inauthenticity about his success threatens Hajime's happiness. And a boyhood memory of a wise, lonely girl named Shimamoto clouds his heart.
When Shimamoto shows up one rainy night, now a breathtaking beauty with a secret from which she is unable to escape, the fault lines of doubt in Hajime's quotidian existence begin to give way. And the details of stolen moments past and present--a Nat King Cole melody, a face pressed against a window, a handful of ashes drifting downriver to the sea--threaten to undo him completely. Rich, mysterious, quietly dazzling, South of the Border, West of the Sun is Haruki Murakami's wisest and most compelling fiction.
用户评价
##很好的一本书
评分##Shimamoto, Izumi, Yukiko是同一个女性的不同命运，她们与主人公的爱恨纠葛充满了深层的无可奈何。现代社会中爱情犹如在一片沙漠中徒劳努力，毁灭与幸福只存在于瞬间。
评分##汤姆苏直男癌的YY之作，顺风顺水男人放着老婆不爱，遇到妖艳初恋便要抛弃整个世界，初恋也爱他若生命（还美味地吞下他所有液体，大男子主义YY极致），关键时刻却无声息消失、不打扰他生活。前面刚刚说着与太太初见时，一分别便像是落入了无止境的孤独中无法存活，后来遇到（得不到的）初恋却秒变饥渴直男，曾经跟其他女人包括太太的感情就都不是真爱了，还一脸无辜地表示：“这是伟大的初恋、错过的真实自我，我有什么办法呢？而且我们独生子女，有无法抹去的生命中的孤独和灵魂的吸引。”我呸，那你来了中国岂不是天天神魂颠倒，几亿人都是你的灵魂伴侣？这么多年我自诩人渣，自以为很洒脱骄傲，才发现其实我根本不是个渣，而世上太多人都打着太多算盘，这个心怀鬼胎的邪恶世界，令人好想避世。
评分##hysteria siberiana. the one far away, always away
评分##其实小时候看过中文版，但是不怎么记得了。读英文版的开头觉得整个文风好亲切，和以前用中文读的村上都有点不一样（每次读英译都有这种感觉）。年龄渐长读书的乐趣竟然多出来一项：重读的时候像从没读过一样。其实和挪威森林气氛差不多，人的孤独和终究莫名妥协掉的爱情。这个阶段村上写的每本书都像是path not taken的他自己。
评分##大雾弥漫 清晰残损的面目
评分##[I always feel like I'm struggling to become someone else.]
评分##Wow... No idea you can construct a story in this way. Some sentences, especially the ones towards the end of some chapters were really punching my heart. Still haunting me..
评分##the story is about a middle-aged man having an extramarital affair with another woman, i would call it a tale.
