Haruki Murakami did a little of everything, he even managed a jazz bar. He is a popular writer, who is credited with being awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. “Kafka on the Shore” is a delightful story about two enigmatic characters: Kafka Tamura, a 15-year-old boy, and Nakata, an elderly man with a special affection for cats. Cats that talk to people. It’s worth reading, as it is worth reading other books by Murakami: Norwegian Wood”, “Hunting Sheep” or “Chronicle of the Wind-Up Bird”.
