Haruki Murakami citations
Page 15

Haruki Murakami est un écrivain japonais contemporain. Auteur de romans à succès, mais aussi de nouvelles et d'essais, Murakami a reçu une douzaine de prix et autres distinctions. Traduit en cinquante langues et édité à des millions d'exemplaires, il est un des auteurs japonais contemporains les plus lus au monde.

Murakami est également reconnu au Japon comme traducteur de l'anglais en japonais , et comme journaliste-essayiste .

Revendiquant des influences allant de Raymond Chandler à Kurt Vonnegut en passant par Richard Brautigan et Franz Kafka, Murakami est rapproché de la littérature postmoderniste. Ses récits sont appréciés pour leur forme de réalisme magique qui voit la quête picaresque se teinter de romantisme ou de surréalisme, et l'enquête policière flirter avec le fantastique ou la science-fiction ; y affleurent la poésie et l'humour, malgré la dimension mélancolique de leurs narrateurs qui évoquent obliquement des thèmes existentiels tels que la solitude, l'incommunicabilité et l'aliénation au sein de la postmodernité des sociétés capitalistes.

Contexte: I watched an old American submarine movie on television. The creaking plot had the captain and first officer constantly at each other’s throat. The submarine was a fossil, and one guy had claustrophobia. But all that didn’t stop everything from working out well in the end. It was an everything-works-out-in-the-end-so-maybe-war’s-not-so-bad-after-all sort of film. One of these days they’ll be making a film where the whole human race gets wiped out in a nuclear war, but everything works out in the end.
