I have since then purchased and read some of his notable works like Kafka on the Shore, Norwegian Wood, The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle and Colorless Tzukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage. It is always a challenge reading his works but his works keep on getting raving reviews, especially Kafka which I wasn’t really able to appreciate. However, my experience with 1Q84 didn’t stop me from reading his other books. The thing that overwhelmed me about the book is its elements of surrealism.
It was a painstakingly lengthy novel and it was quite a challenge navigating the narrative. I was apprehensive then but my curiosity got the best of me and I purchased my first Murakami, 1Q84, way back in 2014. I was introduced to the wonderful world of Haruki Murakami by my friends a couple of years ago. “A sleek, gripping novel of encounters set in Tokyo during the spooky hours between midnight and dawn, by an internationally renowned literary phenomenon.” My Thoughts Genre: Contemporary, Surrealism, Speculative Fiction
