About this book
Norwegian Wood is a 1987 novel by Haruki Murakami. Toru Watanabe, now in his thirties, hears a song on a plane that sends him back to his student days in Tokyo at the end of the 1960s. He recalls his closeness to Naoko, the girlfriend of his closest friend, who had died, and his meeting with Midori, a lively classmate who is very different from Naoko.
The book is a quiet, realistic coming-of-age story about grief and memory, unlike the fantasy elements found in much of Murakami's other work. It took its title from the Beatles song and became his breakthrough in Japan.
