Book for January

Hello Again everyone,

I've volunteered to host January's book: Norwegian Wood by Japanese author Haruki Murakami.

It's a beautifuly written book and I hope you'll all enjoy it. I should point out that I think that there are two translations of the book, so make sure to get the edition that has been translated by Jay Rubin - just so we're all reading the same thing.

Thanks.

Joel

well, february's around the corner...he,he, so i'll go ahead and volunteer as moderator on my month :D. i've not decided on the book yet.

out of curiousity, what does norwegian wood translate into japanese?

The original title is "Norweigh no Mori". Mr. Murakami took the title from the Beatles' song "Norwegian Wood".

Way cool, Ana. I love these new members. :)

Murakami is great.
