Allegories of the Spiritual History of Japan's "post-war" Period: Haruki Murakami's Theory
by Liu Yan
About This Novel
This book is placed in the historical context of Japan's "post-war" and takes the field of identity as the starting point to show how the famous contemporary Japanese writer Haruki Murakami paid attention to and thought about various major issues of the times. It also shows how the writer weaves the issues of the times into the text, especially how he writes about the war memory issue that has always suppressed the Japanese soul and the natural disasters and man-made disasters that have occurred in recent years, and analyzes their internal motivations. The biggest difference between this book and other monographs on Murakami studies is that it does not stop at the interpretation of literary paradigms, but combines Murakami with the times, focusing on analyzing the relationship between Murakami's works, postwar Japanese ideological and cultural space, and the emotional memory of a generation. This book is based on textual analysis, but goes beyond textual analysis, treating Murakami not only as a literary phenomenon, but also as a contemporary phenomenon.
