具体描述
Kafka on the Shore is powered by two remarkable characters: a teenage boy, Kafka Tamura, who runs away from home either to escape a gruesome oedipal prophecy or to search for his long-missing mother and sister; and an aging simpleton called Nakata, who never recovered from a wartime affliction and now is drawn toward Kafka for reasons that, like the most basic activities of daily life, he cannot fathom.
As their paths converge, and the reasons for that convergence become clear, Haruki Murakami enfolds readers in a world where cats talk, fish fall from the sky, and spirits slip out of their bodies to make love or commit murder. Kafka on the Shore displays one of the world’s great storytellers at the peak of his powers.

##看完了。结尾有些令人失望。感觉这个是为1Q84 在练手。| so far so good (25%). 村上春树真会讲故事啊！

评分##"The best way to get at reality is to be as far from it as possible." As I embark on this tour de force with the toughest fifteen-year-old in the world, everything is fated to form into a larger-than-life sort of trance that so distinguishes this postmodern bildungsroman from any other imitations in this genre.
评分##村上的一贯风格，以一种as if taking magic for granted的方式给出答案。没有答案，有的就是无尽的浪漫。英文版读起来很顺，村上果然深受西方文化影响...

评分##自己不会日语，所以没有看过原版的，也没看过中文翻译版本的，但是这个英文版本的很不错，用词简洁而优美。虽然语言很容易，但是小说不是很容易读懂，有太多隐喻和象征手法
