Average rating3.7
A sleek, gripping novel of encounters set in Tokyo during the spooky hours between midnight and dawn, by an internationally renowned literary phenomenon.Murakami's trademark humor, psychological insight, and grasp of spirit and morality are here distilled with an extraordinary, harmonious mastery. Combining the pyrotechnical genius that made Kafka on the Shore and The Wind-up Bird Chronicle international bestsellers, with a surprising infusion of heart, Murakami has produced one of his most enchanting fictions yet.From the Trade Paperback edition.

A very well-written story about nighttime in Tokyo and how it's completely different, full of violence and intersecting life paths. People change once the light comes out as if a new page in a book has been turned over. I love it.
This is my first Haruki Murakami book! Beautifully written, but not just my cup of tea.
Murakami va a mi lista de autores que son difíciles de calificar. Es el primer libro que leo de este autor, y aunque me gustó, me dejó la sensación de que está incompleto. La historia es extraña, y tengo la impresión que hace falta una aclaración. De todas formas me causó intriga por los demás libros de Murakami.
