Murakami Comin Your Way

Sam Riley bio ↓  ·  August 29th, 2011  ·  filed under books

Haruki Murakami discusses “Town of Cats,” an excerpt of his impending publication, 1Q84 (to be released in October) with the New Yorker’s fiction editor. More reason to get excited for fall’s literary bounty!

“Whenever I write a novel, I have a strong sense that I am doing something I was unable to do before. With each new work, I move up a step and discover something new inside me. I don’t see this novel as a departure, but I do think it has been a major step in my career. Formally speaking, this is the first full-length novel I have written from beginning to end in the third person.”
