Jeg kan godt lide Murakamis anderledes univers. Jeg glæder mig til bog 3.

bestemt et eventyr med dybere indhold end blot magi, der tiden værd at udforske.

A phenomenal novel! Murakami is a mesmerizing storyteller, at times reminding me of my favorite Danish author, Isak Dinesen (Karen Blixen), one of the greatest storytellers of all time in my view. At one point in this work, he even quotes several pages from "Out of Africa." Very powerful indeed to me! 1Q84 is the extremely fascinating story about a young woman who drops into an (only slightly) alternate reality filled with "little people" who build "air chrysalises" to create "mazas" and "dohtas" so they can rule the world through the use of certain people acting as "perceivers" and "receivers." Around the same time a young man decides to help rewrite for publication a novel written by a mysterious 17 year old girl, which sets in motion a string of events he could have never foreseen. 1Q84 has several themes. It is about the damage that cult religion can cause in children as well as adults, about violence against women and its consequences, regrets about paths not taken out of fear, and ultimately it's about loyalty, dedication, true love, loneliness, and cats. To name a few. I felt extremely connected with the themes and the characters throughout this brick of a novel. Even the peripheral characters are immensely interesting; like the dowager, the ugly snoop, the gay bodyguard, the beautiful police woman, the tiny nurse, etc. There is lots of suspense and lots of reflection, and a short story within the story (Town of Cats) that is one of the highlights of the entire novel. I LOVED this book and could hardly put it down. That being said, I did find the story a tad drawn out at times, too much repetition in the 2nd and 3rd parts, and I believe the book could have been shortened somewhat. However, this takes away very little from the overall story and I still am giving it 5 stars because it is THAT GOOD and 4 stars is simply not enough.(
