La ragazza dello Sputnik by Haruki Murakami

But, considering the fact that the novel is divided into three different books, the reading gets significantly slimmed down.

This trilogy is altogether a twelve hundred pages novel, so I wouldn’t recommend this book to people who generally don’t like reading long books. Personally I enjoy this type of description and I find it very fluid to read. To be specific, he likes to talk about what people are wearing, what they do when they first get up and describe every details of the character’s lives. First of all, I am a fan of Murakami’s writing style but I’m sure there are people who think that it results very slow and tedious because he definitely likes to take his time and he is very descriptive. I noticed only after the author was Haruki Murakami, a Japanese writer who was already famous in Italy thanks to “Norwegian Wood.” I started reading it without informing myself further on the content of the book, expecting however that it would be a dystopian or something similar, but what is narrated is different in all respects: “1Q84” is essentially a love story of two people looking for each other, in reality and in their imagination. I must admit that the first time I’ve approached this book was due to the graphic similarity of the title with that of George’s Orwell “1984”. One of these, Fukaeri, will be a sort of a medium between the worlds and the bodies of Tengo and Aomame. Throughout the novel the two protagonists remain bound by an invisible thread, which also crosses other characters. Tengo will also enter another parallel world, gradually gaining awareness of his desire for Aomame. Before learning more about the female protagonist, the next chapter focuses instead on a man called Tengo.

From that moment on, Aomame enters a parallel universe, which she calls “1Q84”. She decides to climb down an emergency escape route in order to make it to an important meeting. In the opening chapter, the female protagonist, Aomame, is inside a taxi stuck in the traffic of the metropolis. The trilogy “1Q84” takes place from April through December in the year 1984 in Tokyo. Murakami is a writer I was already familiar with since I had previously bought his short story “Desire” and his other book “Kafka on the shore”. Haruki Murakami is a Japanese writer whose masterpieces have been translated in many different languages and have become international bestsellers. Every time I would go to the library his book “1Q84” would catch my eye until the day I finally decided to read it. ¡Descarga Book review '1Q84' Haruki Murakami y más Monografías, Ensayos en PDF de Inglés solo en Docsity! “1Q84” - Haruki Murakami Book review Haruki Murakami is not a writer I would recommend to everyone, but he is an author whose work I’ve fallen in love with.
