I just found your channel from your Mishima video, which was an excellent survey of his complicated output! I'd very much like to hear a review of 'Sun and Steel' if you ever felt like making it. I had never heard of this book by H. Murakami. Very interesting. I would love to see a picture of Murakami wearing a Ramones t-shirt! Speaking of Murakami, have you ever thought about doing a review of Ryu Murakami? I've wondered if some of the decadent, Western themes in his work, starting almost immediately after the death of Mishima, could be contrasted with some of the ideas that Mishima tables in 'Runaway Horses'. Because the guys in 'Horses' did not succeed, the result many years later is the world portrayed by R. Murakami. Just an idea that has occurred to me before.

I haven't read much Murakami personally, but I feel like this is a really interesting premise for a book and a glimpse into his life! I'm definitely going to pick it up and maybe it'll inspire me to finally read his other novels

I now get my book news from this channel.

At least, book news about Murakami!

Something that I find curious about Murakami is the fact that he is one of the few modern writers whose public figure interest people for some reason, the thing he has for running and music and now this. The only other writer that comes to my mind who also have this status of almost a celebrity is Sally Rooney. The video was interesting, I think had seen the book in Goodreads, but I didn't know much about it.

That's true, he's both reclusive but also very accessible because of how personal his writing is.

Haruki Murakami prima di tutto e' una cosa. E una cosa viene pre pre pre pre pre prima del regno minerale, del regno vegetale e del regno animale. Haruki Murakami ama a tal punto i gatti da identificarsi in tutti i gatti del mondo. Haruki Murakami e' una cosa che sa farsi amare e che riesce ad attirare le simpatie degli altri, ma come cosa dubito che riesca mai a venire alla luce come essere umano Nelle sue t-skirt. (Sono solo skirt di donna e questo mi fa pensare fondatamente che Murakami sia in realta' di genere femminile) ci sta quella con il gabbiano e con la tartaruga. Sono sempre io!!!! Sia il gabbiamo (video) sia la tartaruga, perche' io fui resa orfana di madre e padre (video). Insomma Murakami e' senza il dubbio una cosa femminile e molto pensata.
