<br/><br/> Norwegian Wood is a simple coming-of-age tale, primarily set in 1969-70. The political upheavals and student strikes of the period form the backdrop. But the focus here is the young Watanabe's love affairs, and the pain and pleasure and attendant losses of growing up. The collapse of a romance which is one among many, leaves him in a shambles.
