No one who knows me will be particularly surprised that I like to say, let's say, creative with tedious tasks such as "31 days" project immediately. Therefore, I am pleased beyond measure that I can summarize here three days in one post (okay, really I am forward with this Measure not).
Day 10 - A book by your favorite authors / your favorite author
Day 11 - A book that you once loved but now hates
Day 12 - A book that you've received from friends / acquaintances / ... recommended
I throw ie day 10 to day 12 in a pot, add that I have no favorite authors, but a whole handful, my dear Dorothy thank you for the wonderful book tip stir to hard and comes out: Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End the World by Haruki Murakami.
And ... surprise! In addition I have ever written an article but smooth. What a coincidence as well. Because the but posting is older and may therefore not know it all or search, it is now once again right here:
not the first time I'd like a seasoned TIME critics here. Could then send me waving to the bar and shake a text from the wrist, while I drink Minzfrappé. The TIME's critics would find easily the right words and thoughts that one, yes, would be a masterpiece like this, just, and he would have enough routine to emit an intimidating and reassuring professionalism.
Unfortunately, I can thus not afford someone, so I'm sitting for two weeks (okay, with interruptions) prior to that screen and despair in the beauty of the book by Haruki Murakami. The title alone is fantastic in its bulkiness simply Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World . The I had just read, no doubt.
And when I had read it then, I knew that I in no case will be able to describe what I felt when reading. But I have no doubt the tool. Nevertheless, I will try to pass at least a small piece of it - because it might well be that this book is for anyone out there is such a great gift for me, and this possibility must not be ignored.
Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the playing of the World in two parallel story lines, between which chapters hergewechselt and forth. Hard-boiled Wonderland seems to be a Tokyo of the (distant?) To be present: A data war has broken out. The so-called system tries to encrypt the data, known as the company tries to hack it. The nameless protagonist is responsible for this data in his own brain to "wash" so that they can not be stolen - that is his most everyday job so he deserves his money. The end of the world, however, is a strange, time-and soul-less parallel world no feelings, no drama, no desires, surrounded by an insurmountable wall and omniscient.
Murakami leaves the two narrative threads to run slowly and carefully to each other, thread by thread is created between the worlds, to the common final. A complex tissue, this book without having ever be bulky. A perfect combination of form and content, distinctive smart and sensitive telling, laconic, witty and full of beautiful thoughts. Time there were small observations that have touched me, sometimes they were great ideas - Murakami can certainly both.
There is not anything to say.
the way, who now ask, what is now Day 11: The I ignore. There are no books that I once loved but now hate. These are not ex-boyfriends, man! So ne shit question.
