Japanese novelist Haruki Murakami is to offer advice to troubled readers in an agony uncle column on his website, his publisher said Tuesday. 日本小说家村上春树的出版商表示,村上春树将在自己的网站开“知心大叔”专栏,为有苦恼的读者答疑解惑。 The website, named “Murakami-san no tokoro” or “Mr. Murakami’s place” will solicit problems from fans of the surrealist, whose novels are published in dozens of languages around the world. 该网站名为“村上春树的地盘”,这位超现实主义作家会在这里回答粉丝的提问。村上春树的书在全球以几十种语言出版发行。 The publicity-shy writer will pen answers to queries, offering his opinions and advice on how to tackle all manner of difficulties, said Shinchosha Publishing. 新潮出版社表示,在公众场合很腼腆的村上春树会用文字回答读者提问,他将对方方面面的难题给出自己的看法和建议。 “He will receive questions of any kind,” a company spokesman said, adding that he will answer queries written in a variety of languages. 公司发言人称,“村上将接受任何类型的问题,还会回答用各种语言提出的问题。” Murakami will also answer fans’ questions on his likes and dislikes - including cats, a favourite animal of his, and the Yakult Swallows, the Japanese baseball team he supports. |
