村上春树是日本后现代主义作家,其代表作有《且听风吟》、《挪威的森林》、《 舞!舞!舞!》、《海边的卡夫卡》和《1Q84》等。

1979年,他凭借处女作《且听风吟》获得日本群像新人奖;2006年,凭借小说《1Q84》获得耶路撒冷文学奖 ;2015年,获得安徒生文学奖。此外,曾多次获得诺贝尔文学奖提名,却屡屡与之擦肩而过。

1949年,村上春树出生于日本京都市。受到家庭的熏陶,他从小就具备很高的文学素养,尤其喜欢阅读欧美文学作品。19岁的村上春树进入早稻田大学第一文学部演剧科就读。

由于旷课和考试不通过,村上春树迟迟没有毕业, 因此他的大学时光长达七年。在他22岁的时候,他就和妻子高桥阳子结婚了,后来两人还共同经营了一家爵士乐酒吧。26岁时,他正式从大学毕业。

村上春树的写作生涯是从他30岁开始。在这近40年里,他的作品不计其数,并在国际上受到广泛好评。尤其是《挪威的森林》,翻译到国内后,曾掀起一股“村上现象”。

一直以来,由于深受欧美文学家的影响,他的小说语言风格和写作手法都有明显西化痕迹,他的作品基调轻盈,与日本战后阴郁沉重的文字有所不同。但其作品还是受到日本传统文化和信仰的影响,同时,他委婉细腻的情调经营和细节刻画也属于日本式的。

他笔下的主人公往往是游离在主流之外的“边缘人”,与世界保持着不远不近的距离,拥有独立的人格,在浮躁的俗世里保持着超然的淡泊和从容。

Closing your eyes isn't going to change anything. Nothing's going to disappear just because you can't see what's going on. In fact, things will even be worse the next time you open your eyes. That's the kind of world we live in. Keep your eyes wide open. Only a coward closes his eyes.

闭上眼睛无法改变什么。没有什么会因为你看不见而消失。事实上,当你睁开眼时,事情可能会更糟糕。这就是我们所生存的世界。睁大眼睛,只有懦夫才闭眼。
