" This was the first book of Murakami that I read and it didn't 'wow' me. It was good because it was sad and I have a thing for sad literature but that was it. "

" Is it a case of a flat translation or a cultural chasm? The sexually explicit parts are titillating, especially the book's highlight - a parenthetical narrative where the most prominent supporting female character describes her sole lesbian relationship; but otherwise the first-person narrator is a cipher and there are suggestions that his perspective is skewed without sufficient cues or clues to bring the objective correlative into focus.

Sababa | 1/30/2014
" It was a love story and I usually don't prefer love stories but this really had something to give. The book was pleasant to read and the ending specially, was set brilliantly. "

Marcos Hassan | 1/18/2014
" Murakami could have been the lead singer of a Midwestern emo band in the 90s. "

" Fantastic! Highly recommended. Reminiscent of Catcher in the Rye without trying to be it. "

Brian Krans | 8/17/2011
" My kind of love story...weird, honest, and filled with bad decisions. "
-




Sharon | 6/1/2011
" Most readable Murakami. No cats, no supernatural stuff. Just a lot of imaginary sex and not-so-imaginary depression. Pretty readable but I can't say good. "
-




Jenny | 5/24/2011
" Don't read it if you're sad, but if you could use a little melancholy to cut the bright sunshine of a tropical beach while on vacation, go for it. Three cheers to the translator that so beautifully expresses Murakami's poetic prose.
"

Anna | 5/23/2011
" Crazy read. I knew what was going to happen to Naoki in the end because of the extreme foreshadowing, but I never even had a whiff of what was going to happen with Midori. I loved this book so much.

" Haruki Murakami really knows how to make the readers go to another world, to another time ^_^.
"

David | 5/22/2011
" The book actually bothered me. It was quite depressive and portraying a very dark picture of life. The characters were lost in grief and search for purpose in life. Still as a book was well written.
"

Lucy | 5/22/2011
" I really enjoyed this. Very tumultuous and haunting. The backdrop served as a brilliant correlation to the development of the characters. Sad and captivating with subtle humor. Also enjoyed historical insight into japan in the late 60s, early 70s.
"

Tiara | 5/19/2011
" Call me conservative, but the detailed sexual activities bothered me. And no, I don't get the point. But I do like some of the conversations. My favorite character was Midori.
"

Aliisa | 5/17/2011
" I didn't get much out of this book is all. Perhaps someone should give me a lecture on its significance.
