Norwegian Forest

It is indeed a masterpiece. It has refreshed my three views. Many scenes and the inner activities of the characters in the book are written in a unique way. The emotions among Watanabe, Naoko, Kizuki, and Midoriko are also complicated, and it also gives readers a lot to think about. Japan's "sex" is indeed two extremes compared to China. At least from the outside, it is a pretty good novel.

Put on headphones and open this book in a quiet and melancholy forest, making this work always shrouded in sadness. From Kizuki's death, Naoko's mental breakdown, the death squad's departure, Nagazawa's cynicism and Watanabe's youthful confusion, the delicate brushstrokes unfold a picture. Everyone is imperfect, but it is precisely because of the shortcomings of human nature that makes them more real. Many people like Midori, just like her name, she is full of vitality, cute and straightforward. But I like Naoko better. Maybe it's because I feel distressed that I like her even more. I can't tell whether it's pity or love. I think that when I heard the news of Naoko's passing, Watanabe felt endless sadness in his heart, but he still felt a little bit lucky that he didn't have to be entangled between Naoko and Midoriko. Perhaps due to cultural differences, I couldn't understand many plots, but the bitterness and helplessness of the love between Nagazawa and Hatsumi made me lament. Watanabe's expression of Midoriko's love was also refreshing. Overall, it is a very good book.

The characters described in the book are all very vivid, including Midoriko's liveliness and cuteness, Naoko's quiet beauty, Nagazawa's extreme ego, and Watanabe's honesty and hesitation. The whole book is full of a sad and depressive atmosphere, which makes people unable to calm down for a long time after reading it. I think what the author wants to convey more than the plot is the confusion and delicate inner feelings of youth.

Love is a shameless and natural expression, a heartfelt flow without design, and a collision of different interpretations of life. In today's world without love, we naively think we have found where our money belongs, and we no longer seem confused, but in fact we have been abandoned by the world, and happiness is far away.

There is no shining protagonist in the whole book, everyone has unspeakable flaws and struggles hidden in them. Naoko is trapped in a mental prison, withering between memories and reality. Her fragility and escape are imperfections that cannot be reconciled with herself; Watanabe seems calm and distant, but he is always wandering in loneliness, longing for connection but afraid of being trapped. His silence and hesitation are the imperfections of not knowing how to love; Midori is lively and enthusiastic, but she is struggling in a broken family. She is full of stubbornness and sensitivity, and her sharpness and softness are the imperfections that are still sunny after being tempered by life; There is also Nagazawa's arrogance, Kizuki's determination, and Reiko's past. Everyone has their own shortcomings, and no one can have an impeccable life. No one is perfect.

It's a very good book. It analyzes life, love, and sex in detail. After reading it, I have a new understanding of these things. However, I have a small regret. A sentence in Douyin's recommendation aroused my desire to read this book. However, I have not read the entire book. Maybe it is a translation problem. In short, it is worth reading.

It can only be said that the color system is on the same level as Red Castle. But it's really deep, and there's humidity [cover face][cover face][cover face][cover face]

The whole book has an undertone of sadness and loneliness. The light tone describes ordinary everyday life, but it makes people so sad. The description of the scenery is very detailed, and you can feel that Haruki Murakami is a very delicate and empathetic person. In my opinion, no one in the book is a normal, sane person, and Watanabe himself is also a mental patient. I'm glad that I didn't choose to stay at 20 years old forever. People have infinite time before they come to this world and after they leave this world. So even if life is painful for just a few decades, I think I still have the courage to live.

According to the classic Japanese aesthetics of mourning, don't take death too seriously. You can enjoy it lightly, but don't get too obsessed with it. Human beings are the sum total of all social relationships. Based on the values ​​of family and responsibility that have been accepted since childhood, Watanabe and their overly free behavior always make me feel that they are incompatible with reality. You can live like this, but you can't live like this. Now that I am working and reading this book, I still feel that the protagonists' thoughts and behaviors give me a feeling of emptiness. What would happen if the economic basis were changed to "eat more" or "not have enough to eat"?

After reading this book for the second time, and then half of it, I had a better understanding of the characters in the book, and once again felt the delicate and vivid portrayal of the characters in Teacher Harukami's book. At first glance, this book is a paper book and there are no book reviews. Second, because this book uses software, it is inevitable that when you turn to the comment area, you will always find smart people who do not see things dialectically and judge things in the book with their own opinions. Therefore, it is recommended that you do not read comments under sentences that are prone to controversy when reading, so as not to see some bad things that will stain your mood, or just buy a paper book to read.

I saw a complete work, human nature, color field, liberation, and struggle.

The author wrote a lot of real and delicate things, but in my past life, they were precious things that were suppressed or ignored. The characters are all full-bodied, real, complex and clear. It's a wonderful reading experience.

It's very interesting. It's the first time I read a book about Haruki Murakami's works. I just knew this writer and didn't have the chance to read his works. As mentioned in the preface to the translation, the characters described by the author each have their own unique characteristics, and the content of the story is rhythmic and poetic. The description of the content is real and immersive, and it is very delicate and thoughtful. Then the end of the book is a bit open-ended. Regarding the emotions and life story of the protagonist Watanabe, it does not make us indulge in emotional entanglements. It is recommended that you skip the translation part when reading this book for the first time, because this part was too confusing for me to understand. Then I had the patience to read it a few more times before finishing it. After reading it and reading the first part again, I understood a lot.

A good book, the translation is very close to the original text, the description is delicate, beautiful and full of imagination; the view of life and death in the book coincides with mine. Life and death are not binary oppositions. The living must carry a part of death with them to survive.

Yang Tianzhen said that this book was her sexual enlightenment, so she read it out of curiosity. The preface was too long, and she didn't understand it after reading it several times. She started directly from the first chapter, and watched it carefully. The more she read, the more exciting it became. Haruki Murakami's writing is good, and she describes the scenery or scenes as if they are right in front of her. The description of sex is even more straightforward and makes people think. There are two things in this book that shocked me. Kizuki's sudden suicide surprised me. Why? I kept reading in search of answers, but later I found out that they all had mental problems. The second thing is that Reiko was framed by a thirteen-year-old gay female student. Oh my God, how could such a person exist? Angel face and devil's heart. As for Watanabe, I'm glad that he has so many sincere friends, because he is sincere enough, and his friends like to have close relationships with sincere people, but they feel sorry for him when they leave him again.

Centered on the protagonist Toru Watanabe, it tells a series of stories about love, friendship, interpersonal relationships, outlook on life, youth growth, and redemption between him and Naoko, Midoriko, Nagazawa, Kizuki, etc. Watanabe Toru: A qualified listener, very patient, loves to read, loves to listen to music, loves to be clean, has strong hands-on skills, has a sense of responsibility, values feelings, is occasionally fragile and sensitive but also strong. Naoko: She has bad childhood memories. After her boyfriend committed suicide, she got caught up in the emotional entanglement with Kizuki Watanabe and suffered a mental breakdown and committed suicide. Midori: The family is unsatisfactory, she does a lot of work, she is diligent and capable, she is lively, straightforward and optimistic, she lacks love. Nagazawa: Rich, strong learning ability, strong communication skills, strong leadership, strong willpower, successful career, self-centered, does not value feelings, is a playboy What I cannot accept is that Watanabe fell in love with two people at the same time and other aspects of sexual behavior.

I haven't finished reading it yet, just writing down my thoughts. This book can be renamed "Billiard Killer". Whoever Watanabe-kun plays billiards with will die [face covering] I like Midori very much, but Midori likes the male protagonist too much, even though she knows that the male protagonist still has Naoko in his heart. It makes me feel sorry for this little girl, and my love is a bit humble. "Finished on February 23, 2025" I particularly liked the dialogue between Watanabe and Midoriko at the end of the book. I was so excited that I read it to my boyfriend lying next to me affectionately. After listening to it, he only said: Isn't it the same when you and I reconciled in our sophomore year?

The book contains a youth that is different from ordinary children. It is about the Japanese youth at that time who experienced the baptism of death and love and had some thoughts. Because the person may be a special story, mixed with anecdotes about the life of a college student only about himself and a few people around him, Watanabe Toru is indeed a maverick who cares about himself more than others. I had a variety of emotions when reading this novel, but reading the entire book was like a stone falling to the ground. I saw part of Watanabe's life through his eyes, and got a glimpse of his perceptions from different perspectives. There is indeed something worth thinking about.

It is a very high-end love-themed novel. The protagonist is a 19-year-old young man who is in a mature period of life outlook. He still has understanding and thinking about life, and he has feelings when facing contact with peers and non-peers. Good reviews

I had so many feelings. I probably read it three times. To be honest, after watching it for the first time, I could find a part of myself in these characters. Midoriko's lack of love, Nagazawa's ego, and Watanabe's life details. I could see these happening to me. The biggest help of this book to me is that I can better understand myself through Murakami's description. I always don't understand myself well enough, and I don't know my emotions clearly, which always makes me feel confused. But through Murakami's perspective, I can better understand some of my own behaviors. In short, it is a book worth reading carefully.

It's a good book. The emotions described and expressed are very deep and can bring people into the story. The vocabulary is very powerful. I like this kind of touch that brings me into the book.

The delicate emotional description and rich dialogue description are like a cup of tea, leaving a lingering fragrance in your mouth after sipping it. The protagonist is a sad person who is looking for a reason to exist in a fast-paced life. Is it love, sensory stimulation, or struggle experience? Let us wait and see...

A very nice book. Although some plots are bold, it has no impact. Damn, you shouldn't have expectations for Japanese books. From Human Disqualification to Norwegian Forest, this has great staying power! ! !

🌸 The poems in spring, the whispers of flowers, the whispers of green leaves, every inch of time is a gift from nature. Walking in this season of blooming flowers, your soul is bathed in the warm sunshine, as if you can hear the music of nature whispering in your ears.

Love is a very heavy word. Even in modern times, it is like an ancient prophecy gathering dust, too sacred and too harsh. It seems out of place in this fast-paced lifestyle of the so-called "young people". People dare not have it in their hearts, and they cannot have it. They can only write it into their eyes with words, play it in their hearts with music, and read other people's stories on the Internet and in novels.

Poignant and sad but still beautiful memories of youth... Watanabe, Naoko, Kizuki, etc... Each of them are fresh and full of personality young lives, living an "ordinary" life in the world of rising in the east and setting in the east. Maybe it is not appropriate for me to say this, but under the seemingly ordinary appearance, there is a turbulent undercurrent. If you pay attention, you may fall into a state of eternal destruction at any time... Under the gray shrouded night, quietly waiting for the old friend you have always wanted to see but don't know which direction to look for, even if you isolate yourself from all the good things in the outside world and are willing to put yourself on a deserted island... My heart is so big that it can only tolerate missing you...

I feel that for readers who are reading it for the first time, the detailed descriptions at the beginning are too detailed and useless, which will make them very boring. The characters appear very suddenly and die suddenly, which will give people a very confused feeling, but later it will suddenly become enlightened and very interesting.

Norwegian forest meaning of life Attitude Emotions, loneliness, life and death The unique jump in memories, the fragments and the calmness with a sense of distance, the acquiescence to dramatic sudden changes and the abundant emotions in the limited perspective, the expectation and confusion form a sexy tension White moonlight and cinnabar moles are the contrast between deep emotional emptiness and vivid life. Perhaps because of my sometimes unsociable and emotionally withdrawn nature, I resonate deeply with many unexpected and appropriate metaphors and other emotional descriptions. The large-scale description of sex has caused a lot of controversy, but I think that for the different characters in the article, it represents the most passionate life and vitality, the contradiction between material and emotional loneliness, the resonance and companionship of the soul, and the sideways madness in the dull and deserted. Death is never the opposite of life, but an eternal part of life. Any experience or emotional bond is never cut off, but is connected with each other and becomes a part of our lives forever. When I read the book to the end of the chapter, the military training will also end, and I am still continuing to trek When time freezes at this moment, I will always be eighteen years old On this occasion, I commemorate my confused and determined youth, which I have experienced and have not experienced. 2025.9.11

Beautiful! The melancholy and passion of youth are vividly displayed at this moment.

It is a very good novel, and you gain something new every time you read it. Love is something that is reflected in every little bit of daily life. Watanabe's experience and the story of the heroine in the book make people feel that love is just that. The pain of the mood is just brought into it by oneself.
