About This Novel
"Tokyo Tales" consists of five short stories: "The Accidental Traveler", "Hanalei Bay", "Wherever You May Be Found", "The Kidney-Shaped Stone Moving Every Day" and "Shinagawa Monkey". The famous Japanese director Daiji Matsunaga's new film "Hanalei Bay" is based on the original novel. Haruki Murakami personally serves as the screenwriter, as well as the producer of "Norwegian Wood", the photographer of "Shoplifters", and the soundtrack of "Mountains and Rivers", creating a beautiful and moving image poem. The full text was published in The New Yorker and won the Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award. As always, Haruki Murakami is still quietly tearing down the fences between reality and unreality, or the world here and the world beyond. He is still hovering over the realm of the subconscious like an eagle, looking for a deeper and darker bottom. He is still trying to strip soul information and human subtleties from the ordinary worldly life.
