I have read Wind Up Bird, Kafka, and Norwegian Wood. After you find his “rhythm” very enjoyable reading. Just be prepared to go to a place far away, but also all around you.
Currently I'm reading Norwegian wood. Frst book ever of Murakami. And I must his writting is very addicting.
@@afsha321shaikh Good for you! The Wind Up Bird Chronicles and Kafka By The Shore are, to me, very different from Norwegian Wood. The style is Murikami for sure, but the story’s metaphysical adventures are mesmerizing. Murikami leaves you questioning what is real, and what is just our own perception of every day. Long reads for sure, but worth every page. Cheers from Chicago!
@@kgilliagorilla2761 indeed his book is worthy of every sec. Kafka on the shore is going to be my next read for sure. ❤️
I am about to read "Men without women"
@@aakashshukla2848 i was very much attracted to this one by its name and is my read list already. Do give a review after reading.✨
I started studying English under the influence of Haruki Murakami.
He says you need to read The Great Gatsby in English in order to fully understand its content.
I like The Great Gatsby and I want to be able to read it in English.
@Anna B yeees, they talk a lot about Scott Fitzgerald
I want to be able to read my favourite Japanese novels in Japanese, I wonder how it will differ from reading in English.
Fitzgerald is definitely one of those writers whose language enhances the reading experience. Very jazzy sentences. Great vocabulary. I once started reading This Side of Paradise and I simply couldn't stop.
@@bib3kpandey It is vastly different. Kawakami uses the multiple interpretations/ways of writing of Japanese characters/words in her writing to increase how her characters think. It's great.
If you are afraid of making little changes... you give the power to change you to somebody else.
Because change is ironically the only constant.
Agreed! Food for thought!
I stumbled this wonderful writers work through serendipity. Interestingly enough, right around the time I decided to have the audacity to write a draft for novel. He is right, resolving to do something as simple as writing in my journal everyday motivated me to begin working on a novel. So, I've been writing in my journal for 2 months now and are currently a week in on my novel. I write 500 words a day for now. But, I do want to increase it to 1,000 words.
Wow! Kudos to you for taking action towards your goals! I admire your resolve, and your journey is very inspiring. Keeping a habit everyday for two months is an excellent way to establish a routine. We're on your team, cheering for you! Let us know how your progress comes along!
Have you checked out The Artist's Way? It's a good creativity program kind of book. I got as far as chapter one but it got me started writing in my journal every day, at least 3 pages, and that by itself has been such a good change. I'm glad you found something that works for you--can't ask for much more!
You can't be great In one day, achieve a small little win each day, in the end it will all add up
Very beautifully explained. No over the top voice or impressive jargon. Just plain heart to heart simple words to drive across the point of persistence and single-mindedness.
lmao my procrastination's so bad i can't even bring myself to start this video
It's been in my watch later for weeks
Then I guess the situation is pretty bad. It literally feel like falling down from top but you want to get up again but need some push, sometimes just afraid to fall back again. But staying stagnant will ruin us
Same. I know this will be imp so i am avoiding it.
My man
Reminds me of Haruhiro from Grimgar Fantasy & Ash
"Mastery through repetition and persistence"
Ironic. I've been carrying around one of his novels for literally months and I haven't even opened it yet lol.
Same but for me it's years i buy it.
I can’t finish to reading it and planning to do it tomorrow.
you gotta
Ditto
I have his Kafka on the shore
But haven't read it yet
done. i wrote an essay and a small algorithm in java. i was thinking of slacking off and taking the rest of the day off shitposting on the internet, but heeding Murakami's advice actually got me to doing part of my share for the day. to you, my esteemed hostess, i bow to your wise decision in uploading this
I love this writer❤️
Yes! We've learned a lot from Haruki Murakami and have made better changes in our lives after reading his works. Thank you for your support! 😊
it seems to me it really is just finally getting into a habit that gives your the opportunity to grow even 1% better at something everyday. It seems so slow and arduous a task, many give up, but it seems that if you push through that urge to quit and take an easier path you will finally find some success. The fact that this insight is repeated by many of the most successful people in the world speaks volumes I think.
The saying 'One day at a time' is not about change. It is meant to give hope to those overwhelmed by a huge challenge like overcoming addiction. The idea is that you only need to focus on today and not worry about tomorrow because tomorrow never comes. It is always today.
Thanks for reminding me!
Alright. My chosen author of this year will be Murakami. Thanks for the video!

3600 “manuscripts”? What is that measurement? How does it translate to pages?

I came here after reading 1q84.
I like Murakami´s simplicity. He is no Faulkner.
Please make a video on a list of best thin books/novels. Heartly, waiting for the recommended video 😊. And, at last, I want to say that your video was amazing 😍❤.
I enjoyed this video, but was confused by the use of the word "manuscript" in it. It states that Murakami says he writes 20 manuscripts per day, as in 20 separate pieces of fiction/nonfiction? That doesn't sound right. Obviously, he's an incredibly talented and prolific writer, but does manuscript here mean "page," or something like that?
same thoughts!
Wikipedia defines a manuscript page, and style; 10 or 12 pt, double spaced, seems to equal about 250 words per page. So I think this quote means writing 20 pages of 250 words = 5000 words. That sounds plausible in 4 or 5 hours of work - especially if he's in a kind of meditative state while writing. Although it is a lot, unless you have a really clear plan of where the story is going. 3600 x 250 = 900k. I guess it's possible that it took 900k (of work) to get to a first draft he was happy with (i.e. writing a lot of dead end ideas that he threw out, or found better ideas later). Conventional wisdom says that a story will have a lot of scenes that get rewritten or replaced in order to have great scenes all the way through, just like a sculpture removes lots of unnecessary material.
Of course, the downside of word count goals (for new writers) is that it can be tempting to waste time writing a lot of crap, just for the sake of the word count, and pretend to have made progress (which I have often done). I don't know if Murakami writes a lot of crap to reach this daily goal, but regardless, he comes out with something he is happy with at the end.
I suppose we don't know if each 'page' is connected. He might write 20 different individual ideas of 250 words, and then weave them together in revision into scenes and narrative.
So my comment wasn't much help at all, really.
Small steady daily acts, "talent, concentration and persistsnce"
Thanks!
Sleep early. Stop binge series in netflix.
It's really hard to stop addictions to youtube and Netflix. How do you do it
I started with his running book followed by a number of short stories swiftly followed by Norweighn Wood and Kafkre Shore - which I loved.
He is also very skilled at writing mudane events and activities in a very satisfying and enjoyable way. He is one these writers whose writing seems effortless.
Murikami is someone who needs to be read, not described.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😘😘😘😘

Would u upload such inspiring vids everyday? If u do then I'll subscribe ur channel
As I haven't read any of Murakami's book, which one should I start with?? Please suggest. 😊🙏
Norwegian Wood for sure!
@@josh_miguel thank you so much for your reply 🙏😊
Dance dance dance 🤚
@@AnuRadha-tc4zb his books are motivational??
i only know Risa Murakami..😅
Which work of his would you recommend?
Kafka on the shore
@@okeekpagha2126 thankyou
I've read Hear the Wind Sing, Pinball, A Wild Sheep Chase, Dance Dance Dance, The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle and Killing Commendatore from Murakami. I would say the last one really gripped me and even though The wind-up bird is one of his most famous ones, the commendatore had something that wouldn't let me stop thinking about it even months later. His very first work Hear the Wind Sing is also incredible. It is raw and unpolished and it was also the first book I've read from this author which immediately made me fall in love with his writing. I think reading his first and his last book would give a great introduction to Murakami's world
@@lera8577 woah I'll keep this in mind. thankyou!
@@lera8577 I think his books tend to tell the same story at different stages. So for someone just starting, I'd recommend either Kafka on the Shore or Norwegian Wood. The first is his most best explorative/weird book while the second is his most normal book.
I'd recommend the first because why not go for him at the height of his 'murakami' depth, instead of going for him deliberate writing a normal books, good as it might be.
I personally started with sputnik sweetheart and definitely don't regret it. But that's my journey.
I WANT TO BE STRONG RUNNER.AFTER SO MUCH.SURGERY.BUT YES NOT GIVEN UP.MAYBE RESPOND IF U CAN.PLEASE.

Isak Dinesen AKA Karen Blixen 😅
I mean I'd listen to him but starting isn't finishing and 1Q84s ending was one of the worst abrupt endings I've ever read. Super intriguing from the start, but what the hell was that end? First and last novel I'll read by him. Planning from end to beginning is more necessary than starting after reading that saga. Didn't watch the video, because that book ruined my opinion of him. Just had to say this.
What does manuscript mean here? 20 manuscripts a day...
I'm pretty sure he means handwritten pages.
@@realce666 That's a lot for one day. :)
@@radaimark6548 wikipedia defines a manuscript page as 250 words, so that would equal 5000 words per day. A lot, but possible in 4 to 5 hours.
@@Ruylopez778 Thanks. :)
Education in the craft decreases the amount of revision required, he could of saved himself so much time writing a manuscript.
Yeah you go and tell to a nobel price nominee in literature that his approach to writing is not as good as the billion literary students that didn‘t produce something worth reading their whole lives
This woman has an amazing voice.
how can he write 3,600 a month when there are days if he writes 20 manuscripts per day? then "if I do this for 6 months, I can write 3,600 manuscripts", you need to check your script... that's wrong
It seems like a bad translation
I see many UA-cam videos have background music. I wonder why I find the background music unnecessary and an irritant. I have stopped watching this video at 1:36.
I bet Murakkami did not raise kids and had all the time to dedicate to his work. No attribution of his success to his spouse who must have done all the unpaid housework for his family.
SCRIPTURES
Murakami is for those over 50
Great video. But the narration is so...
Thank you, and sorry to hear that. We'll be sure to bring you better-narrated videos in the future!
Horrible background music
I knew that this is how Murakami writes his novels: calculated, systematically, superficial, random pointless storys with some nice random thoughts, allegories and metaphors, pseudointellectual, random anecdotes (probably about the things that Maurakami has been dealing with at the moment), sex of course, unfullfilled desires, existential thoughts, kitschy fantasy "magic" (whoah, AMAZING).
That is why I do not like his novels.
Painful to listen to...
We'll work on it & do better next time! 😊
