Tokyo Non-Fiction and Fiction Late Mornings — Autumnal Reading (Haruki Murakami)

Autumn, with its long nights, often invites more time for reading; it’s the perfect excuse to curl up with a good book—or two. As the season turns cozy, this meetup welcomes both non-fiction and fiction alike.

Let’s talk Murakami at a café he named Orange Cat, located in the Haruki Murakami Library.

Fuel your mind while you fuel up on coffee — all while soaking in Haruki Murakami’s muse.

Once or twice a month in Western Tokyo (this time, closer to Central Tokyo), we gather on a late weekend morning to share what we've been reading — no assigned books, no pressure.

For this meetup, each participant gets 6–15 minutes (depending on group size) to talk about a book by or about Haruki Murakami, followed by a few quick questions or comments before moving on to the next.
