Uno dei più clamorosi successi letterari giapponesi di tutti i tempi è anche il libro più intimo, introspettivo di Murakami, che qui si stacca dalle atmosfere oniriche e surreali che lo hanno reso famoso, per esplorare il mondo in ombra dei sentimenti e della solitudine. Norwegian Wood è anche un grande romanzo sull'adolescenza, sul conflitto tra il desiderio di essere integrati nel mondo degli "altri" per entrare vittoriosi nella vita adulta e il bisogno irrinunciabile di essere se stessi, costi quel costi. Come il giovane Holden, Toru è continuamente assalito dal dubbio di aver sbagliato o poter sbagliare nelle sue scelte di vita e di amore, ma è anche guidato da un ostinato e personale senso della morale e da un'istintiva avversione per tutto ciò che sa di finto e costruito. Diviso tra due ragazze, Naoko e Midori, che lo attirano entrambe con forza irresistibile, Toru non può fare altro che decidere. O aspettare che la vita (e la morte) decidano per lui.

    So I looked around and I noticed there wasn't a chair.

    She asked me to stay and she told me to sit anywhere,

    I sat on a rug, biding my time, drinking her wine
    We talked until two and then she said, "It's time for bed"

    She told me she worked in the morning and started to laugh.
    I told her I didn't and crawled off to sleep in the bath

    And when I awoke, I was alone, this bird had flown
    So I lit a fire, isn't it good, norwegian wood.

    -- Beatles; Norwegian Wood.
