Podcasts about hard boiled wonderland

It won't take long, maybe a few pages, before ardent Haruki Murakami fans experience a sense of deja vu reading The City and Its Uncertain Walls, as if they've visited this place before. Which should be expected as his latest novel reworks not just 1985's ‘Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World', but also ‘The Town and Its Uncertain Wall', a 1980 novella that remains untranslated from the original Japanese (and likely will, given Murakami's dissatisfaction with it).

Haruki Murakami was born in Kyoto, Japan, in 1949. He grew up in Kobe and then moved to Tokyo, where he attended Waseda University. After college, Murakami opened a small jazz bar, which he and his wife ran for seven years. His first novel, Hear the Wind Sing, won the Gunzou Literature Prize for budding writers in 1979. He followed this success with two sequels, Pinball, 1973 and A Wild Sheep Chase, which all together form “The Trilogy of the Rat.”Murakami is also the author of the novels Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World; Norwegian Wood; Dance Dance Dance; South of the Border, West of the Sun; The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle; Sputnik Sweetheart; Kafka on the Shore; After Dark; 1Q84; and Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage. He has written three short story collections: The Elephant Vanishes; After the Quake; and Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman; and an illustrated novella, The Strange Library.Additionally, Murakami has written several works of nonfiction. After the Hanshin earthquake and the Tokyo subway sarin gas attack in 1995, he interviewed surviving victims, as well as members of the religious cult responsible. From these interviews, he published two nonfiction books in Japan, which were selectively combined to form Underground. He also wrote a series of personal essays on running, entitled What I Talk About When I Talk About Running. The most recent of his many international literary honors is the Jerusalem Prize, whose previous recipients include J. M. Coetzee, Milan Kundera, and V. S. Naipaul. Murakami's work has been translated into more than fifty languages.From https://www.harukimurakami.com/author. For more information about Haruki Murakami:Norwegian Wood: https://www.harukimurakami.com/book/norwegian-wood“Haruki Murakami, The Art of Fiction No. 182”: https://www.theparisreview.org/interviews/2/the-art-of-fiction-no-182-haruki-murakami“The Underground Worlds of Haruki Murakami”: https://www.newyorker.com/culture/the-new-yorker-interview/the-underground-worlds-of-haruki-murakamiPhoto by Elena Seibert.

One of my all-time favorite writers is Haruki Murakami, and my personal favorite among his many excellent works is the imaginative and underrated "Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World." In this book is a fantastic line, which just so happens to be the title of this episode: a good craftsman has one scar. Why might this be the case? In this episode, I'll break down the surprising wisdom contained within such a simple phrase.

Season 1 - Episode 1/10 Daniel Morales is a writer, translator and former association professional based in Chicago. He writes the website HowtoJapanese.com and is a regular contributor to the Japan Times Bilingual page. Daniel chose to chat about Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World by Haruki Murakami, translated by Alfred Birnbaum and edited by Elmer Luke. "A narrative particle accelerator that zooms between Wild Turkey Whiskey and Bob Dylan, unicorn skulls and voracious librarians, John Coltrane and Lord Jim. Science fiction, detective story and post-modern manifesto all rolled into one rip-roaring novel, Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World is the tour de force that expanded Haruki Murakami's international following. Tracking one man's descent into the Kafkaesque underworld of contemporary Tokyo, Murakami unites East and West, tragedy and farce, compassion and detachment, slang and philosophy." Additional Information You can read Daniel's collection of blog posts breaking down the translation of Hard-boiled Wonderland and the End of the World on Daniel's blog, the Hard-boiled Wonderland Project. Daniel also mentioned the book Who We Are Reading When We Are Reading Haruki Murakami by David Karashima which you can find in paperback and Kindle on Amazon.

In which Meghan is joined again by Emily Bennett and Ollie Brady of Best Acquaintances, and they discussed Haruki Murakami’s Hard Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World, a beautiful and weird book from the 1980s. Meghan apparently doesn’t know what “magical realism” is and keeps trying to apply it to all books, Ollie rants that he doesn’t want unicorns mixing in his science, and Emily explains how badass you can be even at 17 and when you’re considered “pink and chubby.” We all discuss what we would do on our last day on earth, more about unicorns, and how much boys think about food and sex.    Books discussed in this podcast:  Hard Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World Kafka on the Shore The Metamorphosis  What I Talk About When I Talk About Running 1Q84 My Cousin Rachel Lamb Find us on the web: Website | Twitter | Facebook | Instagram | Goodreads | Email: judgingcoverspodcast@gmail.com Find our host and guest(s): Meghan's Twitter | Best Acquaintances' Twitter | Best Acquaintances' Facebook
