Murakami Haruki creates a kind of genre fiction that is highly literary and consumable, and weakly ideological. In the post-historical era in which Murakami lives, it is impossible to experience the oppression, resistance, exile, torture, redemption, and faith of Dostoyevsky - experiences that are already great literature in themselves. This book reads Murakami's works piece by piece and analyzes the seven weapons Murakami uses to achieve the tension and strangeness necessary for literary writing: 1. the choice of great events as the background of the times; 2. love and death; 3. sex; 4. wine; 5. music and literature; 6. special changes or appearances; 7. and finally, and most importantly, the everyday life of the literary temperament. -This is the embodiment of Murakami's literary genes and temperament, as well as his literary power - ultimately, Murakami creates a new aesthetic function for the age of industrial civilization and the post-historical era: to pacify and comfort. This kind of comfort is called "healing.
