Norwegian Wood
Haruki Murakami· 1987
Quiet love, quiet grief, and the slow work of staying alive.
Toru is a college student in 1960s Tokyo. He loves Naoko, who is fragile and far away. He's drawn to Midori, who is alive and loud. The book is about loss, memory, and how people slowly become themselves.
Was es eigentlich ist
Norwegian Wood is gentler than most Murakami. It moves slowly on purpose. It's a book about grief that doesn't shout — it just keeps walking with you.
