Best Murakami Book To Read First. I read it in february, two months after my boyfriend and i broke up, and over a year after i’d read blind willow, sleeping woman. I read the whole thing in bed.
The wind up bird chronicle is my favourite. I mention that in case anyone was worried that somehow. The book took murakami from “cult” status to the big leagues.
Murakami is best known for his surrealist novels, but his first realist one, norwegian wood, is perhaps the best place to start.
