Haruki Murakami

Product details

Two moons... two worlds... a girl... a boy... a love story... an atmosphere of magic and fantasy, a journey of self-discovery, a tale of two parallel existences, and a fantastical world that rivals that of George Orwell... 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami is his most ambitious novel to date, a profoundly moving work, a masterpiece, and an intellectually stimulating experience.
The novel is exciting and suspenseful, and it caused a great sensation in Japan when it was published. Its first edition sold out in one day, and one million copies were sold in its first month.

"If this novel is like a funhouse, it's one steeped in seriousness, where, once you enter, you risk everything." (Newsweek) "A great novel that fulfills literature's primary function: to redraw and reshape the world through imagination..." (Los Angeles Times) "Omame and Tengo walk toward each other like divers surfacing. When I finished 1Q84, I felt as if I, too, was surfacing. Even days after reading it, the world still didn't seem the same." (The Christian Science Monitor)
