ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami is a surreal and mysterious novel that follows the journey of Kafka Tamura, a 15-year-old boy who runs away from home to escape his abusive father’s curse. His path intersects with Nakata, an elderly man with strange abilities, leading to a series of inexplicable events. The story explores themes of identity, fate, family, and the blurred line between reality and fantasy. With elements of magical realism, dreams, and supernatural occurrences, the novel delves deeply into the complexities of self-discovery, trauma, and the connections between the past and present.
