After Dark by Haruki Murakami

adventurous dark mysterious reflective tense
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? Yes

5.0

Murakami’s moody story set in Tokyo “after dark” splits the perspective between two very different sisters: on sister who wanders the shops and streets of Tokyo with a strange and charismatic boy, and one sister trapped in the world of sleep. Spooky girls, late-night adventures with strangers, brothels, weird TV people. What more could you ask for?
