The Strange Library by Murakami Haruki Book Review: The Strange Library by Murakami Haruki

In Camera Lucida Roland Barthes discovers his mother not in pictures of her as an adult, but in a photograph taken of her when she was a child. Does the narrator of The Strange Library find his mother in the ghostly girl? Then, there is the leitmotif of stolen time. Speaking again of the girl, the narrator tells us that “she seemed exhausted. She had lost her color and had grown transparent, so that I could see the wall behind her.”In February 2005 an illustrated edition of The Strange Library appeared in Japanese (図書館奇譚 toshokankitan, published by Kodansha). This was then republished in January 2008 as a Kodansha Bunko edition. The illustrations are by Maki Sasaki.

Moriko lead me out of the laboratory and the doctors both gave me a bow. I returned a bow to them making sure it was as least as low as theirs. I remember that from something I have read. At the reception Moriko handed my some gift vouchers for Kinokuniya and thanked me again. She then called the elevator for me and wished me goodbye. Published in the collection Kangaroo Biyori (Heibonsha, September 1983) and by Kodansha in 1986: ISBN 978-4-06-183858-1Mi principal razón para leer esta obra fue por la portada, ya que se ve muy bonita, y porque quería procurar acercarme un poco a la pluma del reconocido Haruki Murakami. Sé que el autor tiene novelas muy reconocidas y valoradas, y sé que debí intentar leer alguna de esas obras para crear en mi mente un perfil más sólido de lo que es Murakami, pero fue un periodo en el que estaba buscando una lectura ligera porque andaba leyendo obras muy extensas, así que creí que este libro era una buena opción para lo que estaba buscando. Y bueno, de hecho lo fue. En La biblioteca secreta nos encontramos un texto muy fácil de leer, con capítulos efímeros, y que podemos terminar en menos de veinte minutos. Además, las ilustraciones del libro son geniales, por lo que cada una de ellas es un perfecto complemento que sirve para acompañarnos en nuestro pequeño viaje. Entonces, ¿cuál es el problema y por qué la razón de mi calificación? Pues bien, este es el motivo.
