編輯推薦

　　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 thatlike the most basic activities of daily life he cannot fathom.As their paths converge and the reasons for that convergence become clear Harnki 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
　　
　　 　　備受矚目的村上春樹新作《海邊的卡夫卡》，今年一月由日本達文西雜誌讀者票選為2002年度書榜第一名，讓讀者爆發齣“飢渴閱讀”的熱烈迴響，魅力驚人。村上自從踏入文壇就受到讀者的擁戴，曆20多年來聲勢不墜，近幾年邁嚮世界化“村上現象”正逐步加溫，這本長篇的推齣，讓許多評論者不禁贊嘆“村上離諾貝爾奬越來越近瞭”。
　　這是一個自開始閱讀的瞬間，就能讓人忘卻現實時間、不忍釋手的故事。許多讀者都提到“《海邊的卡夫卡》讓人重拾閱讀小說的快感，想盡快得知結局，讀完後卻又有種可惜已將故事看完的復雜心情。”評論者及讀者們都推崇這部作品堪稱村上春樹數一數二的代錶作，這點也是獲得10歲到40歲年齡層讀者廣大支持的理由。
　　小說善於設置懸念，情節的展開每每齣人意料，凝縮緊湊，漫溢著誘使讀者手不釋捲地一氣讀完全篇的牽引力。夢在這部小說中似乎具有隱喻的意義。作者摧毀瞭夢與真實、現實與超現實、此世與彼世之間難以攀越的高牆，填平瞭橫亙於人世與異界之間不可逾越的鴻溝，創立瞭一整套獨自的邏輯話語。人物塑造也特點鮮明，不無神秘並充滿現代性與象徵性。“這部作品似乎可以視為揭露人類自身固有邪惡的小說，也可以說是探索擺脫自我孤獨的僵殼的小說”，一位批評傢如是說。

　　村上春樹新長篇小說半年熱銷日本80萬冊。在本書中村上春樹首次為中國讀者作序。《海邊的卡夫卡》中背負命運詛咒的少年遠走異鄉，心在希望與絕望之間碰撞，世界在現實性與虛擬性之間遊移。小說力圖通過十五歲少年的眼睛來描繪這樣一個世界。

內容簡介

Comprising two distinct but interrelated plots, the narrative runs back and forth between the two, taking up each plotline in alternating chapters.

The odd chapters tell the 15 year old Kafka's story as he runs away from his father's house to escape an Oedipal curse and to embark upon a quest to find his mother and sister.[4] After a series of adventures, he finds shelter in a quiet, private library in Takamatsu, run by the distant and aloof Miss Saeki and the intelligent and more welcoming Oshima. There he spends his days reading the unabridged Richard Francis Burton translation of A Thousand and One Nights and the collected works of Natsume Sōseki until the police begin inquiring after him in connection with a brutal murder.

The even chapters tell Nakata's story. Due to his uncanny abilities, he has found part-time work in his old age as a finder of lost cats (a clear reference to The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle). The case of one particular lost cat puts him on a path that ultimately takes him far away from his home, ending up on the road for the first time in his life. He befriends a truck-driver named Hoshino. Hoshino takes him on as a passenger in his truck and soon becomes very attached to the old man.

Nakata and Kafka are on a collision course throughout the novel, but their convergence takes place as much on a metaphysical plane as it does in reality and, in fact, that can be said of the novel itself. Due to the Oedipal theme running through much of the novel, Kafka on the Shore has been called a modern Greek tragedy.

作者簡介

Murakami was born in Japan during the post–World War II baby boom.Although born in Kyoto, he spent his youth in Shukugawa (Nishinomiya), Ashiya and Kobe.His father was the son of a Buddhist priest,and his mother the daughter of an Osaka merchant.Both taught Japanese literature.

Since childhood, Murakami has been heavily influenced by Western culture, particularly Western music and literature. He grew up reading a range of works by American writers, such as Kurt Vonnegut and Richard Brautigan, and he is often distinguished from other Japanese writers by his Western influences.

Murakami studied drama at Waseda University in Tokyo, where he met his wife, Yoko. His first job was at a record store, which is where one of his main characters, Toru Watanabe in Norwegian Wood, works. Shortly before finishing his studies, Murakami opened the coffeehouse (jazz bar, in the evening) "Peter Cat" in Kokubunji, Tokyo with his wife.They ran the bar from 1974 until 1981.

Many of his novels have themes and titles that invoke classical music, such as the three books making up The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle: The Thieving Magpie (after Rossini's opera overture), Bird as Prophet (after a piano piece by Robert Schumann usually known in English as The Prophet Bird), and The Bird-Catcher (a character in Mozart's opera The Magic Flute). Some of his novels take their titles from songs: Dance, Dance, Dance (after The Dells' song, although it is widely thought it was titled after the Beach Boys tune), Norwegian Wood (after The Beatles' song) and South of the Border, West of the Sun (the first part being the title of a song by Nat King Cole).

Murakami is a keen marathon runner and triathlete, although he did not start running until he was 33 years old. On June 23, 1996, he completed his first ultramarathon, a 100-kilometer race around Lake Saroma in Hokkaido, Japan. He discusses his relationship with running in his 2008 work What I Talk About When I Talk About Running.

伊塔洛·卡爾維諾（意大利小說傢）於1923年10月15日生於古巴哈瓦那附近聖地亞哥的一個名叫拉斯維加斯的小鎮。父親原是意大利聖萊莫人，後定居古巴，是個齣色的園藝師；母親是撒丁島人，植物學傢，為瞭使齣生在異國他鄉的兒子不忘故土，母親特意給兒子取名為伊泰洛(“意大利”的意思)，以寄托他們對故鄉的懷念。 1925年卡爾維諾剛滿2歲，全傢就遷迴到父親的故鄉聖萊莫。他們住的那幢彆墅既是栽培花卉的試驗站，又是熱帶植物的研究中心，因此，卡爾維諾自幼就與大自然結下瞭不解之緣，他不僅從父母親那裏學到很多自然科學知識，熟知名目繁多的奇花異草以及樹林裏各種動物的習性，還經常隨父親去打獵垂釣。這種與眾不同的童年生活，給卡爾維諾後來的文學創作打上瞭深刻的烙印，使他的作品始終富有寓言式童話般的色彩而彆具一格。
