What book are you reading right now?

[Arno]

 

Reading "the time, the time" right now. 

I'm not a good reader but I've read some books of Martin Suter before and i kinda like his "style".

 

"Die Zeit, die Zeit" (The Time, the Time) by Martin Suter is a psychological thriller that follows Peter Taler, a man obsessed with finding his wife's killer. He meets his elderly neighbor, Knupp, who believes that

 time can be reversed by recreating the exact physical conditions of a past moment. Together, they attempt to meticulously reconstruct the state of the world as it was years ago to undo the tragedies of their lives.

The city and its uncertain walls by Haruki Murakami

Not the first one from him that i am reading, already read Norwegian Wood and Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the end of the world by Murakami to name a few. 

I like his surrealistic writing style, it's very unique, feels like you are observing another persons dream.

Actually, I read it for the second time, and for anyone who enjoys this kind of book, it's a great one.

It’s a documentary about him?

Not really, it's kind of a self-help book meant to be useful, and it talks about things he's been through in the past, using that as an example. Basically, it's not a book that everyone will like.

Finished this one and reading atm Insel der Freundschaft before die Katzen of him couldn’t find English version. DURIAN SUKEGAWA 
 

He has a very sober and sobering view of the world but touching and meaningful 

 

Sweet Bean Paste is a wonderfully bittersweet story on what it means to have purpose. If you've ever felt like you aren't functioning as an important human in this society, this book is definitely something to pick up.

He won the Nobel Prize last year. This book came out in '85 though and is perhaps best known through its film adaptation. It's very weird and unsettling in a darkly comedic way. It's written in a way that you piece together the storylines over time as you get more information. I'm enjoying it and I suspect I'll like it more when I get farther into it. My brother gave it to me and I think he was spot on since one of my favorite books is The Notebook by fellow Hungarian Ágota Kristóf. They share similarities in setting and tone. For fans of melancholy and dystopia with a hint of wry humor.

Embarking on book 3 of the stormlight archives by Brandon Sanderson. Lengthy but if anyone likes a great series, books 1 (The Way of Kings) 2 (Words of Radiance)...fantastic!
