Много атмосферна, потапяща и пристрастяваща книга за мен беше „Убийството на Командора“. Откъм сюжет бих я определил като преобладаващо спокойна, изпъстрена с тайнственост и загадъчни мистерии – характерни за японците. За толкова дълга книга категорично на места имаше спадове в развитието, имаше напомняния и за неща от предишни книги на Харуки Мураками. Той често гравитира около 1-2-3 ядра в книгите си – музика и изкуство; чудати персонажи, на които се случват редица странни неща; липса на ясни и категорични отговори на финала и котки (макар че сега акцентът пада повече върху едно бухалче). Всичко това присъства и тук в „Убийството на Командора“.

Ако вече са прочетени 4-5 негови книги, то едва ли ще се открие нещо особено новаторско в „Убийството на Командора“, но въпреки това на мен ми беше доста завладяваща и приятна. А и събитията около звънчето си бяха доста голяма загадка за мен – особено в началото. Вероятно ми допадат точно такъв спокоен тип книги с художници (сещам се за миналогодишната ми „Дума Ки“ на Стивън Кинг, която също харесах силно – поради преобладаващо сходни моменти).

My first Murakami book, I'm going to have to reflect on it some more. Overall, the story was engaging, great dialog, and wonderful descriptions of the people, places, and feelings. I'm sure there is much deeper meaning in this than my simple mind can comprehend without going back and rereading and studying it.
