The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle
Haruki Murakami
Synopsis "The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle"
Toru Okada's cat has disappeared and this has unsettled his wife, who is herself growing more distant every day. Then there are the increasingly explicit telephone calls he has started receiving. As this compelling story unfolds, the tidy suburban realities of Okada's vague and blameless life, spent cooking, reading, listening to jazz and opera and drinking beer at the kitchen table, are turned inside out, and he embarks on a bizarre journey, guided (however obscurely) by a succession of characters, each with a tale to tell.
(Kioto, 1949) es uno de los pocos autores japoneses que han dado el salto de escritor de prestigio a autor con grandes ventas en todo el mundo. Ha recibido numerosos premios, entre ellos el Noma, el Tanizaki, el Yomiuri, el Franz Kafka, el Jerusalem Prize o el Hans Christian Andersen, y su nombre suena reiteradamente como candidato al Nobel de Literatura. En España, ha merecido el Premio Arcebispo Juan de San Clemente, la Orden de las Artes y las Letras, concedida por el Gobierno español, el Premi Internacional Catalunya 2011 y el Premio Princesa de Asturias de las Letras 2023. Además, es maratonista, triatleta, melómano, ama a los gatitos y disfruta mucho de la literatura norteamericana.
