Sinossi
Sei incontri che possono cambiare il corso di un'esistenza, o che promettono una via d'uscita dal dolore, la cura di una ferita, la decifrazione di un mistero, o addirittura la salvezza di una città intera. Un uomo abbandonato dalla moglie parte per l'isola di Hokkaido per consegnare un pacchetto alla sorella di un collega. Cosa contiene il pacchetto? Forse il vuoto che sente dentro, quella "bolla d'aria" per cui la moglie lo ha lasciato. In una località di mare una ragazza stringe amicizia con un pittore la cui unica vera passione è accendere falò sulla spiaggia. Qual è la forma del fuoco? Quale il modo di ottenere un fuoco veramente libero?

Murakami was one of the authors that really got me into Japanese literature years ago. I discovered his work and read several in a row before I branched out looking for other authors from Japan. Despite his status in the literary world and his status as the author who helped get me into one of my fa Leggi tutto
The Kobe earthquake struck an area of southern Japan early one morning in January 1995. It took more than 4000 lives and left hundreds of thousands homeless. In this collection of six short stories, the relationship of the narrative to the earthquake itself is sometimes clear but at other times obsc Leggi tutto
This is the twelfth book I have read by Murakami and at this point you could probably say that I am quite invested in the author. I think he is fantastic, well, sometimes. And that’s the problem, I just don’t find him very consistent in his brilliance. My opinion of this collection only reinforces m Leggi tutto
