Murakami, Haruki Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication New York, Vintage international, 2012.
Description 1157pWhite spine
Summary/Abstract A masterwork. . . . Murakami has crafted what may well become a classic literary rendering of pre-2011 Japan. . . . Orwell wrote his masterpiece to reflect a future dystopia through a Cold War lens. . . . Similarly, Murakami’s 1Q84 captures attitudes and circumstances that characterize Japanese life before the March earthquake-tsunami-nuclear disaster. Reading 1Q84, one can’t help but sense already how things have changed.
