Last year when Tom graduated from school, he came to Taibei. He
didn't like to work on his father's farm and hoped to find a job in a big
city. He went from one company to another but no one wanted him. With
little money left, he got to the station, sad and tired. All he wanted to do
was go back to his small town. It was very late at night and the station
was full of people. They were waiting to buy tickets of the last train. He
bought the last ticket, and he was very happy.
At that time, a woman with a crying baby walked to him and asked

needed it more than he did. After the train left, he sat on the bench and
didn't know where to go. Suddenly, an old man came and said, "Young

Whenever he releases a new novel—every three or five years—there
is an increasing in interest. His 1987 novel Norwegian Wood<<挪威的森林 >>, named after a Beatles song, became a classic among young
Japanese, selling more than 4 million copies in Japan alone. His latest
novel Colourless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage published
in April, sold more than one million copies in its first month.
The novelist who sells in the millions but keeps away from the public
is Haruki Murakami(村上春树 ).
If you see eager fans waiting outside bookshops in London or New
York at midnight, if it’s not for something Harry Potter, it will be Haruki
Murakami’s latest novel. Up to now, Murakami’s work has been
translated into 42 languages and appeared on best-seller lists across the
world.
So why the excitement? Though Murakami’s books are set in Japan,
his subjects of loneliness, boredom and loss, resonate (共鸣 ) with
readers everywhere.
He was the first Japanese author whom readers stopped perceiving as
Japanese. You may see some mention of cherry blossoms and other
Japanese symbols in the book title but as you read the book itself, these
soon disappear.
29. What kind of writer is Haruki Murakami?
A. He writes in Japanese and English.
B. He takes an active part in social life.
C. He won the Nobel Prize for literature.
D. He is popular worldwide
