村上春樹はあらゆる世界の言語で過大評価された作家。私も翻訳者が悪いのかと 思っていた。しかし、結局彼が何も言うことを持っていないのだと気がついた。 http://howtojaponese.com/2009/05/27/q-teen-eighty-four-early-release/ Jahana Noboru Says: May 31st, 2009 at 5:18 am Murakami Haruki: Most overrated novelist in any language. I used to think it was just bad English-language translations, but I’ve finally realized that he has nothing to say. \Underground\ was his best book, probably because it comprised interviews he conducted with those involved with the attack at the Kasumigaseki station and therefore there was no room for him to name check pop tunes, pop brands, pop celebs. Let me make a suggestion to his handlers and marketing geniuses who have guided this odd career as consciously as any \idol\ or genetically modified crop: Sell his books exclusively at \combini\ like 7-Eleven, Lawson’s, Hot Spar, and the like. As a courtesy, the clerks can ask if you want it heated up in the microwave before you consume it like a postmodern o-bento. His spoken English also is iffy considering he lived in the US for quite a while. Maybe he should have gone out into the streets and talked to living, breathing people. Really, if you want to know the location of the \otaku\ phenomenon any cultural GPS will give you the coordinates of one, Murakami Haruki.
世界で笑いものになる村上春樹 世界で人気のfacebokk(笑)では春樹の過大評価をめぐって語り合ってるよ http://bs-ba.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=2659210195&topic=6692 Haruki Murakami: writer of classics or completely over-rated?(春樹は完全な過大評価?) Tarnya I say over rated. I bought 'the wind up bird chronicle' after readin reviews on here and amazon and was really dissapointed. It was boring and childlike and nothing really happened, which for a book which was as thick as a brick was rather annoying! I much prefer Ryu Murakami..but maybe thats because i like things that shock me(過大評価です。ここやアマゾンの書評をみてねじ巻き鳥クロニクルを 買ったががっかり。退屈で子供っぽく、本当に何も怒らない。レンガのように厚くうんざり。村上龍の方が好き。)
