A review by alisarae
Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage by Haruki Murakami

3.0

I was fundamentally disappointed with the plot mostly because I don't have any vested interest in lingering on past relationships gone askew, but all the other Murakami hallmarks were there to redeem it. The linguistic style is smooth and calculated, the pace moves in a contemplative and careful manner, and as always, it gave me a desire to go live in Japan and be an introspective, clean, reserved, polite person. And listen to records and pet cats.

It's no 1Q84, but I haven't given up on beloved Murakami yet!
