|
Toru, a quiet and preternaturally serious young college student in Tokyo,
is devoted to Naoko, a beautiful and introspective young woman, but their
mutual passion is marked by the tragic death of their best friend years
before. |
|
| |
Toru begins to adapt to campus life and the loneliness and isolation he
faces there, but Naoko finds the pressures and responsibilities of life
unbearable. As she retreats further into her own world, Toru finds himself
reaching out to others and drawn to a fiercely independent and sexually
liberated young woman. |
A poignant story of one college student's romantic coming-of-age, Norwegian
Wood takes us to that distant place of a young man's first, hopeless, and
heroic love. |
