Leer autores clásicos o bestsellers me causa la misma reserva. No me gusta ver mi opinión sometida a estándares ajenos, así que tiendo a acercarme a obras y evaluarlas solo por ello.

Con este libro no se puede. Murakami abre su corazón y lo que lees es lo que es, ni más ni menos. Es fresco y sincero, me gusta mucho el estilo de estos capítulos.

Quizás ahora lo lea con ojos distintos.

I enjoyed reading about Murakami’s craft, and I enjoy his books a lot; people should be aware there is a chapter that reads as fatphobia, and that the way gender is explored leaves something to be desired.

An interesting insight into the process and life of an important and influential novelist. I found the topics meandered away from the central idea of the book at times, sometimes into interesting and unusual places and other times it was a little dull. On the whole I found it interesting to learn about how Mukakami has made writing novels his career, I particularly liked how he talked about sustaining yourself as a writer over a period of years as many writing books focus only on getting your first book published and not on how to build a long-term and lasting career.
