ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK
Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami follows the intertwined journeys of Kafka Tamura, a runaway teenager, and Nakata, an elderly man with the ability to talk to cats. Kafka seeks to escape a dark prophecy and find his identity, while Nakata embarks on a mission guided by an unknown force. Their paths converge at the Komura Memorial Library, a place of refuge and mystery. The narrative explores themes of fate, free will, memory, and the search for self. The motif of the curse looms large, influencing Kafka's actions and shaping his sense of self.
