Like all of Murakami’s works, Kafka on the Shore is a thrilling exploration into the obscure and the extraordinary. Haruki Murakami’s masterpiece weaves together two parallel narratives: the book contains the engaging story of Kafka Tamura, a fifteen-years-old boy who runs away from a terrible prophecy and Nakata, a simple man with poor mathematical skills but strong connection with cats.
When the animals can speak, fish rain, and the restless spirits live among them, these deny protagonists search for purpose and self. The core set of concepts that has been appreciated in Murakami’s prose is an interesting combination of magical realism, focus on the characters’ psyche and relation to the world of pop culture. Fasten your seat belts and be ready for the world of magic where the mundane is combined with the supernatural and nothing is as it seems.
