The World’s Spring

Murakami’s The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle is well done. The pages flew by, owing more to a slowly building feeling of discomfort than to the sheer strangeness of the plot. I hadn’t read fiction in a while, and this was a nice way to break the fast.

Plus, according to Amazon, you get over 23,000 words per dollar. What more do you need to know?
