Murakami Book Club - Men without Women

Murakami Book Club

We read one book a month by iconic Japanese author and translator, Haruki Murakami. We are all free to read the books in Japanese or in a translation into any other language. We come together in this session to discuss the books.

This book club is fully online. Everyone is welcome to come along to as many or as few sessions as they like.

The discussion takes place in English.

This time, we are reading:

Men without Women |『女のいない男たち』

Across seven tales, Haruki Murakami brings his powers of observation to bear on the lives of men who, in their own ways, find themselves alone. Here are vanishing cats and smoky bars, lonely hearts and mysterious women, baseball and the Beatles, woven together to tell stories that speak to us all.

Marked by the same wry humour that has defined his entire body of work, in this collection Murakami has crafted another contemporary classic.
