As I read this recent (not his latest) Murakami, I was so frequently reminded of why I love his writing so much. It‘s complex thought but flows easily in reading. Its mind bending but states universal human truth. It finds beauty in facing darkness. 1Q84 is still my favorite. But this is in my top 3 along with my first thing Murakami title read: The wind up Bird Chronicle.
