The new novel - a book that sold more than a million copies the first week it went on sale in Japan - from the internationally acclaimed author, his first since IQ84. Here he gives us the remarkable story of Tsukuru Tazaki, a young man haunted by a great loss; of dreams and nightmares that have unintended consequences for the world around us; and of a journey into the past that is necessary to mend the present. It is a story of love, friendship, and heartbreak for the ages.

Best novel so far

This is my second novel from Murakami, but between this and Norwegian Wood, I would say this is my favorite. I love the style, as it almost feels as if it’s meant to be a first person narrative, despite being 3rd person.
The narration did throw me off a little bit in the beginning with the accents, but I grew used to it. When the narrator is just telling the story, I found to have really liked it.
