Boek Kafka on the shore - Haruki Murakami (B-010-1-290)

Kafka Tamura runs away from home at fifteen, under the shadow of his father's drak prophecy. The ageing Nakata, tracker of lost cats, who never recovered from a bizarre childhood affliction, finds his pleasantly simplified life suddenly turned upside down. As their parallel odysseys unravel, cats converse with people; fish tumble from the sky; a ghost-like pimp deploys a Hegel-spouting girl of the night; a forest harbours soldiers apparently un-agend since World War II. There is a savage killingm but the identity of both victim and killer is a riddle - one of many which combine to create an elegant and dreamlife masterpiece. 

De Japanse schrijver Haruki Murakami (1949) schreef o.a. de romans De kleurloze Tsukura Tazaki en zijn pelgrimsjaren, Kafka op het strand en zijn magnum opus, de trilogie 1q84. Zijn werk wordt in meer dan 40 landen uitgegeven en is bekroond met diverse internationale prijzen.
