The tagged. A new #HarukiMurakami book is always exciting for me.
It was published in Japan last year, but the German translation (Die Stadt und ihre ungewisse Mauer) just came out at the end of January 2024.
(I'll wait for the paperback before I acquire it, though).

#SundayFunday #tattoos #books #read #MarilynMonroe #HarukiMurakami

Cool question! - But no, none. I have three tattoos atm and have planned more, but no book related ones till now. The tattoos I have and the ones planned are quotes by Marilyn Monroe, song lyrics and animals.

Yuki_Onna ... Continued:
Oh yes - one book related tattoo plan I have. If I'm ever lucky enough to meet Haruki Murakami in person, I'm going to ask him to give me an autograph on my right wrist and get that tattooed.
I'm not an autograph hunter at all, I used to work at theatre and have met enough famous people to know they're just people like every other.
But Haruki Murakami inspired me enough to pick up my writing again, so - heck yes!

I noticed the #JanuaryinJapan reading challenge on Instagram, and it motivated me to read more translations! This month, I‘ve read Sweet Bean Paste, All the Lovers in the Night, The Kamogawa Food Detectives & Before the Coffee gets Cold.

Any suggestions for my 1st #HarukiMurakami novel? I‘ve heard his work is VERY misogynistic.

30. International Jazz Day for #MayMontage

Most of Murakami's works have been influenced by music, most notably Classical and Jazz.
It's a widely known fact that music lover Murakami owned and ran a Jazz Bar in the 1970s.

Also checking in for last weekend's #20in4 #Readathon - which didn't add up to much timewise ⬇️

Yuki_Onna ... continued - My cold hindered me quite a bit from reading, I slept most of the time... 🤧😴
But I got a chunk of pages read of both of my current reads, so it went fine nevertheless.✌️

Sputnik Sweetheart | Haruki Murakami

Meet Sputnik, one of our first guinea pig squad of four - one neutered boy and three girls.
Yes, she was named after the tagged book. After all, that's what she was - Sputnik, a sweetheart... 😊
Don't get me wrong, I have loved all our pets - love animals in general - but with some you have a connection that's even more special. She was my sweetie - the calmest, friendliest, cutest one and the haven of tranquility of the troop🧡
