This book takes food as the main line and tells all kinds of delicious foods that Haruki Murakami has experienced in his writing and life, as well as memories, stories and emotions related to these foods. The following are my reading notes:

First, food and memories

For many people, food is often associated with memories. In his book, Haruki Murakami tells the story of a popsicle he ate in summer when he was a child. This popsicle has a unique taste and taste, and I will think of it every time I hear the tinkling ice cream truck. This example illustrates the influence of food on people's memories and emotions.

second, food and writing

Haruki Murakami mentioned that he pays great attention to his meal time when writing. He believes that eating is a kind of balance between body and mind, and a balanced state can improve the efficiency and quality of writing. In addition, food is also one of the sources of his inspiration, and sometimes a piece of food can inspire his creative inspiration. This proves the close relationship between food and writing.

Third, food and life

Haruki Murakami emphasized in his book that tasting and enjoying food is an attitude towards life. He believes that only by focusing on the details of life can we experience the beauty and happiness of life, and tasting food is one of the ways. In addition, the taste of food also requires certain skills, such as a keen perception of taste and texture, which can also be applied to other aspects of life.

In short, Hundred Flavors Life has brought people deep thoughts on food, memory, writing and life. Haruki Murakami, with his unique style and emotion, linked food with life and told his own experience and sentiment, which is worth reading.
