has the fascination of a well-written detective story combined with a surreal dream narrative . . . full of appealing, well-developed characters.»

«A world-class writer who . . . takes big risks. ... If Murakami is the voice of a generation, then it is the genera­tion of Thomas Pynchon and Don DeLillo.»

— Washington Post Book World

«All the hallmarks of Murakami's greatness are here: restless and sensitive characters, disturbing shifts into altered reality, silky smooth turns of phrase and a narrative with all the momentum of a roller-coaster. . . . This is the sort of page-turner [Mishima] might have written.»
