Murakami Haruki Interview in Spain(Sub.in Spanish) by shin sung hyun

[@emilyantonia197]

When he said all he needs is the “cat and the book and the music” I knew he was a fellow introvert. His writing is comforting and alien, he knows something important. You live through his words.

[@ayudaporfavor]

Everyone likes cats and books and music. That is not an introvert thing

[@ulaherbicyd4567]

I've fallen in love with this man's mind

[@silkthyme]

for real. his mind is beauty and wonder incarnate

[@westerling8436]

pathetic

[@angie1226]

i can't stop smiling just by looking at this man omg

[@simplefolding]

Nguyên Nguyễn why :)

[@angie1226]

can you be sad while looking at something you like?

[@rewantsharma8227]

i feel you :)

[@chunkfunkle1387]

You can tell Murakami is a brilliant man. Loves those female ears, though! He's one of the good guys, and I'm glad he decided to start writing at 30. Living proof that it's NEVER too late to follow your dreams.

[@sinaasadi3800]

@H. H Iam not crap btw LOl

[@panterxbeats]

Female ears? LOL what

[@maksimnikiforovski2034]

30 is like a newborn for writers.

[@zorgius]

Panthers That's from his novel :)

[@jameswalker6864]

@Scarlet Mary W. Shelley finished the immortal gothic classic Frankenstein aged 20, and started writing it when she was just 18. And then Shelley wrote more books in her lifetime, but all of them were worse, meaning she wrote her best when she had little experience of the world. I agree most authors write their best book when they are over 30, but there are always exceptions!

[@sako2719]

This is the first time I’ve heard him speak, period. Wow. Surreal :O

[@bakaiggy]

I am in love with this guy's writing and way of thinking

[@westerling8436]

sure whatever

[@cestlina]

I’ve been reading his works for past 15 years and hearing his voice for the first time. World difference from how I imagined him to be my whole life.

[@shubhamh7451]

have you read his 1q84?

[@2107camilo]

In a good or bad way?

[@YokoshimaSTAR]

By looking at his eyes and the way he speaks, his whole aura, you can feel how his imagenatory realm is a whole different world. A crazy restless loud world. Noise and colours and confusion of how to interpret them all down... so we're left with little expression by his books despite they're many... it saddens me we can't know all the stories and thoughts he thinks of endlessly and maddens me I can never get into that world of his :/ Thank you, Murakami. For the pleasure. You're my favorite contemporary writer, and one day in future someone will say you're one of their favorites in history.

[@Garyrayparrish]

I'm alone in the house. So, I have three things to help me, the cat, the books and the music.

[@derekcavill]

i like how he kind of sighs and shakes his head after saying "the cats"

[@bbens999]

He helps my mind calm. I channel his characters and I feel more at ease in all sorts of situations. Thank you for giving me peace in life. I love you Haruki.

[@doclime4792]

Will try this. Thank you.

[@IfYouOnlyBelieve]

Wow thank you for sharing this. I rhought i am the only one who feels like this ❤

[@fishfall8060]

i love him so much.he makes my day better and bearable.

[@gds506]

So far I think this is the only video of an interview to Murakami in english or spanish. great post amigo

[@_voyageuse]

My favourite contemporary writer! Not only that his works are amazing,but also they are relatable to the core.I think that he has managed to say everything that we have ever felt or exeperienced but never knew how to express it.

[@LiLoLiLy-M]

Thanks Murakami for the outstanding novels .. your books are my world . Love you

[@arts8192]

Thank you for making this video

[@hug1942]

Mil gracias por el esfuerzo que nos ha permitido conocer un poco más la sensibilidad y el espíritu de este escritor fascinante. Chapeau!!!

[@Itsnotanymore-ku7dz]

He's precious.

[@olgailina90]

his english is good

[@korean6706]

He was in english degree at university and his first job at publisher field was actually as a literary translator, not as an author. No wonder his English is astonishingly good.

[@nr655321]

It's not. He's intermediate: slow delivery and many grammar mistakes.

[@lukjanowitsch1]

Murakami's writing is music!!!

[@kazzicup]

I enjoyed the Ushikawa chapters tremendously. He is such a sympathetic character. I felt so bad when Tamaru attacked Ushikawa in his sleep.

[@MrRedrum91]

Un grandissimo scrittore, uno dei più grandi. Grazie maestro Murakami!

[@theuserintheroom4450]

My hero. 7:15 pm 11/26/19 my first time listening to Murakami's voice.

[@GreenTeaViewer]

around 60 years old at the time of the interview.

[@StarshipKoyote]

Just finished Wind-Up Bird. Amazing story. Hard Boiled Wonderland awaits then IQ awaits. Thanks for posting.

[@WonderBoi48]

I know this is a bit late, but have finished it all?

[@paulacastillo6118]

Que hermoso que tenga subtitulos en español!!!

[@cheriedeurope]

love him so much!!

[@NishantBhaskar]

He is superb!

[@DancenAnnaB]

Oh wow! Nice post! I've been a pretty big fan of Murakami-San since last year, after reading his name on the back of a book by yoko ogawa. I looked him up and immediately fell in love. One of my favorite authors by far. And his english is pretty impressive. He gets my props! :3

[@davidfernandez9791]

Poor Murakami would have won Nobel if he was a woman, or a black, or an homosexual, etc.

[@isabelaelenachitan3948]

I love you, Mr. Haruki Murakami! Be healthy and happy doing what you love to do! 💜

[@judithlirios3050]

omg I need to hug him, I love his way of writing, it's so strange but beautiful.

[@thewonderfulwizardofozisan7573]

Haha... the guy leaning into the frame, and someone he knows sees what he's doing and he smiles a little bit guilty. That just made my day.

[@MsJeffo]

Lo máximo... Eres el mejor escritor de estos tiempo... Cada vez q leo uno d tus libros... me quedo intoxicado y cada vez quiero más y más.....

[@renecetina]

I've been searching this interview, the complete version, anyone has a link of it?

[@mozartpena]

He's amazing. I just read about him in a TIME article about 10 years ago. Picked up his (unborrowed) book from a library. And I've been a fan since then!

[@inveng]

all his books are great he is my favourite author

[@YokoshimaSTAR]

I, too, don't listen to music (can't listen to music) if I wanted to take my writing seriously. But the nature always helps me and the birds, but not the cars and human laughters. Anything human made hurts my ears...

[@Ignore883]

vatanabe midori >3

[@lowiichan0407]

Cet homme est la perfection.

[@lewisyoutube66]

I've read both ''Norwegian wood'' and ''after dark''... Two fantastic books!

[@シマダ-f4f]

I'm Japanese and I was surprised that Haruki Murakami is loved so much by people around the world seeing those comments. What of him attracts you guys? Of course I love his book too, just question

[@unchartedgoldenabyss]

1 Universal themes. 2 Mix of magic and realism. 3 Fascination with Japan.

[@mmxxmxm]

Japan and his style

[@MM2001k]

1. His written style. 2. His charaters. 3. The stories. 4. He is a big inspiration for me, as young storyteller. 5. Themes.

[@PaperySky]

Kindred spirit. I wish I knew someone like him in “real life”

[@Nb_edu]

he is such a cutie

[@zzzarianna]

so this is the beautiful soul that wrote the seventh man.. sigh, i enjoy his mind and the way it works so.. thought provokingly.

[@kazzicup]

1Q84 is the best book I've read.

[@shubhamh7451]

oi mate, wan catchup?!

[@rocudaal]

Haruki Murakami, ¿Pero qué te carajos te pasó para que empezaras a escribir 1Q84?. Sinceramente estoy anonadado de semejante imaginación, de tanta expresividad, de tantas cosas que me sacan de quicio, pero que no pueden evitar que te siga leyendo.

[@Telocuop]

Me identifico mucho con los personajes de sus libros... Me encanta este autor.

[@keytlayntixime65]

MURAKAMI you the best)

[@024bellwood]

I was suprised that he can speak English!!笑

[@satoru.nakata]

That's exactly how i imagined Nakata from "Kafka on the shore" would talk.

[@emiliohupe]

Where is the full interview

[@ednagbr09]

he´s a fantastic writer!

[@idontremember1231]

My favorite author!

[@kazzicup]

I wish to meet Murakami. I want to be face to face with him talking ! Maybe have coffee together, or lunch.

[@simonmontgomery5341]

I have first listened to The Wind Up Bird Chronicle. I will listen to you.

[@thegirlwholeftthefridgeopen]

Is there a full version of this Q&A session?

[@lucymartinez7537]

que libros tan profundos ha escrito.

[@croissant33]

This is a very rare and nice video! i'm japanese and read his novels in japanese. but he seldom speaks in front of japanese media...

[@tahirkasap2904]

Hes so sweet omg

[@EvaFariou]

Amazing human!!! 💗☝😊

[@loy._.a18]

Cats, books and music ❤

[@alexanderorose]

he is the best..!!!

[@JyotiSingh-hl3yj]

Man his voice 😌

[@valeskaquilaqueolagos2470]

un hombre inteiligente , lastima es muy viejito para mi .diferencia de el yo cuando pinto mandalas o hago manualidades lo hago con musica

[@Itsnotanymore-ku7dz]

He’s so cute

[@samiramahamed5885]

Love you so much

[@KujiCollection]

I don't understand how he says he doesn't listen to music when he writes here, but on his website he says he almost always listens to music WHEN he writes? Does anyone know anymore info on this??

[@hiderhip2174]

perhaps a translation problem?

[@muratisik6956]

KujiCollection he listens to music while writing to feel less 'alone', it's less solitary that way, but when he writes he concentrates on the text and not the music. The music is there but more as a background sound. (I do the same while writing my novels)

[@mannnxoxo]

He looks small and silly, I can’t believe this man’s books can leave me in such trauma

[@QJChiao]

My favorite writer. Where is your Nobel prize?🌚

[@QuizMontagQM]

Where i can find the complete interview?

[@chloe8387]

nice interview but why the rising sun flag profile pic ?

[@greentea1900]

this man is genius..

[@mkk911]

When I got to book three I was surprised to find out that Murakami made chapters from Ushikawa's POV. Those chapters were great. Though I really felt sorry for him when Tamaru killed him! And I don't know if you know this or not, but Ushikawa appeared in The Wind-up Bird Chronicle! So can you imagine what was my reaction when he appeared in 1Q84?! Though I enjoyed 1Q84 but not as much as Kafka on the Shore and The Wind-up Bird Chronicle. Norwegian Wood is good as well.

[@mohammedalkhalify2333]

si love this man i love what he wrote i like thoughts him i like kafka on the shore i do not know wath i say now but all of thought in my mind about him is i like this man . by the way i have analysis about kafka on the shore is not analysis espeically but ....it is impression in general any people wanna read or see the impression he writes to me on and i will send him

[@carouselambra7]

MURAKAMI i love you

[@alastairmacfarlane2960]

Hello, do people not understand this man? I admire his books because he is analysing how those "nerdy" bastards downstairs corner what they call a "nerd" in a way that is it folks, plus he has gotten more into "nerdy" headcases talk as he has got older. His writing is aimed at both teachers and pupils who are interested in sexual hygiene.

[@numnum8357]

Kafka on the shore would be amazing as a senin manga. hhah

[@aliisam2876]

my love kurapika 💙

[@Giomagia]

Murakami is great.

[@IsabelChiaraCollage]

Grandísimo! !

[@ChrisOrillia]

His english is very good.

[@RodAGTotoro]

Where's the rest of the interview?

[@mkk911]

OMG I'm really sorry! I thought everyone here has read the novel!

[@カーヤ-p8s]

村上さんの英語かわいいね

[@أندروميدا-ش7ك]

Beautiful Mind

[@hotelmario510]

He speaks really good English.

[@MrJonathanbarmo]

*Tooru Okada, ¿eres tú?*

[@freespirit5662]

Le seul auteur à qui je pardonne de laisser tout en suspens.

[@hortetamareta]

Eres el millor, m'encanten els teus llibres

[@brucechung7177]

Haruki has always been criticizing Japanese imperialism in his every novel. I think the uploader of this clip like him and his works, but the uploader's profile image is the rising sun flag symbolizing Japanese imperialism. If you didn't have the idea of it, you'd better change the profile image.

[@kimihahm1965]

I like him

[@helloweenarctico]

Is there any video where he speaks japanese?

[@meisztericsdaniel9509]

/watch?v=Hxw5ONkWFuE

[@martinvoet]

He's my favorite writer, but his Spanish is a bit disappointing

[@derekcavill]

and then nods his head after "the music"

[@shikhabhardwaj4804]

I don’t why he reminded me of Watanbe.

[@SilviaBa]

Y hubo dos lunas en la Tierra en el pasado, como sucede en el libro: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWGkqnVrq815l9E

[@rambotan5867]

[@Irishbloke92]

Dance, Dance, Dance

[@Kukasauto]

Norwegian Wood!

[@princepjohnson]

Read Kafka on the Shore. I first read Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman also. Kafka touched me in a similar way. I've read 3 other of his books too. But I recommend Kafka on the Shore first.

[@derumad4132]

[@danielsteiner4110]

.....Aomame....

[@jorisvandenhoek6251]

So many kinda musics

[@PinkandPurpleBullets]
