1Q84 — Chapter 1
(I think the book looks very elegant without its cover ^__^)
Recently, I discovered the audio book version of 1Q84 on Audible and instantly bought it. Years ago, I've read this novel in German and loved it. 1Q84 fascinated me like no other novel before. I was captivated by the characters & story and turned page after page.
My original plan was to read another novel next (I thought it would be best to read single volume novels first), but now that I have even the audio book I changed my plan because I didn’t want to wait any longer.
My strategy
I just finished reading and listening the first chapter. I want to read this book more thoroughly, so I’m looking up more words than usual. Plus, after every paragraph I listened to the corresponding part of the audio book while following the words on the page and visualizing the scene in my mind. Now that I reached the end of the chapter, I’ll listen to it again, but now without looking at the text and without stopping after every paragraph.
Some paragraphs of the book are still difficult to understand so the audio book is even more challenging. But I feel that focusing on short sections first improves my understanding. I don't understand everything but I can still follow the story. Considering the difficulty of the book, this is not too bad at this stage. This is only chapter 1 and there are two more volumes. I try my best to improve my understanding over time.
About this chapter
I like how the first chapter introduces the main character. A young woman is sitting in a taxi which is stuck in a heavy traffic jam. The radio plays classical music. Nothing unusual. But from now on, the author gradually reveals more and more interesting details about the main character, the driver, the interior of the taxi, the music and so on. As the chapter progresses, it becomes clear that the main character is no ordinary woman. Many things are rather hints than concrete information. These hints will reveal their importance in later chapters. 1Q84 is a big puzzle. With every chapter, more and more pieces are falling into place. That’s what captivated me.

我內心的有些東西已經消失了,沒有任何東西可以填滿這洞穴。
Something inside me had dropped away, and nothing came in to fill the cavern.

Is that a duck or a duck?・あれはアヒル…かも
夫は村上春樹の「ねじまき鳥クロニクル」の英語版を持っている。2017年の冬にその本を読んで以来、アヒルやカモを見るたびに『アヒルのヒトたち』を思い出す。読む前は、カモを見るのが好きだったが、読んでから見方がちょっと変わった。カモを見て、何を考えているのだろうかとか今日は元気だろうかなどと思う。
わたしの娘も海に浮かんでいるカモを電車の窓から見るのが好きらしい。「冷たい海で泳ぐのがすごい!」とか「今日いないね~。暖かいお家に帰ったかな~」とか言う。カモたちは多分最初から寒くないと思うが、暖炉の前で落ち着いて、水かきのある足を暖めてほぐすことを想像するのが楽しい。
英語の授業で教えた教科書で睡眠のことを知ってから、カモに対する見方がまた変わった。カモは一列に並んで寝るのだが、両端の2羽は、仲間を守るために片目を開け、脳の半分を目覚めさせたままにしているという。このびっくりするような適応は、コミュニティに���んでいる生き物しかできないと思う。
ところで、なぜ村上春樹は「カモ」じゃなくて「アヒル」を使ったのだろうか。「アヒルのヒトたち」について手紙を書いた女子は確かに野生のカモを見たと思う。もしかしたら、村上氏は言葉の正確さよりもリズム��考えたのだろう。それか、本当にアヒルであり、そして英語版が同じ理由で「duck people」という言葉を使ったかもしれない。「domestic duck people」(飼い慣らされたアヒルのヒトたち)は響きが全然よくないよね。
My husband has an English copy of Murakami Haruki’s The Wind-up Bird Chronicle. Since reading the book during the winter of 2017, every time I see ducks I remember the “duck people.” Before reading the book, I enjoyed watching ducks, but after reading the book the way I looked at them changed. Every time I see them, I wonder what they are thinking about or I want to ask them things like, “How are you today? What are you going to do today?”
My daughter loves to see ducks floating on the sea from the window on the train. She’s impressed that they choose to swim in the cold winter water, and when we don’t see them she wonders if they’ve gone home to warm up. I assume they were really never cold in the first place, but it is fun to imagine ducks settling down in front of a fireplace to thaw out their little webbed feet.
While teaching English to high schoolers, I taught a lesson about sleep from the textbook that again changed the way I look at ducks. I learned that wood ducks sleep in a line, with the two at either end keeping one eye open and half their brain awake in order to protect everyone. I feel like that amazing adaptation could only happen when creatures live in true communities.
By the way, I wonder why Murakami Haruki decided to use the Japanese word for domestic duck (アヒル) rather than for wild duck (カモ). I’m pretty sure the girl in the story who wrote letters about the duck people was watching wild ducks. Maybe Murakami was thinking more about the rhythm of the term rather than the accuracy. Or, perhaps they were domestic ducks, and the English translation uses “duck people” for the same reason: it sounds better than “domesticated duck people.”

Book Cover for Murakami's "Kafka on the Shore"
Pencil on printer paper (yep...), and some highlights drawn with a pastel pen. I actually entered the World Illustration Awards with this one in the Book Cover category (❁´◡`❁) I'm not sure if I'll get anywhere, but it feels nice!
