Description
“Norwegian Wood” is a novel written by the acclaimed Japanese author Haruki Murakami. It was originally published in Japanese in 1987 under the title “ノルウェイの森” (Noruwei no Mori), and it has since become one of Murakami’s most popular and widely read works. The English translation, by Jay Rubin, was published in 2000.
The novel is a coming-of-age story set in Tokyo during the late 1960s. It follows the life of the protagonist, Toru Watanabe, as he reflects on his youth and the experiences that shaped him. The narrative is framed by Toru’s memories of his college days and his romantic relationships, particularly his deep and complicated love for two women: Naoko, a fragile and troubled young woman, and Midori, a vibrant and unpredictable classmate.

I had just heard of Haruki Murakami’s literary genius, but now I’m a witness of it too.
Norwegian wood is a brilliant story that explores very complicated relationships and
still can be very easily related to. I recommend it!
