In this propulsive novel, one of the most idiosyncratically brilliant writers at work in any language fuses science fiction, the hard-boiled thriller, and white-hot satire into a new element of the literary periodic table.

As he searches for a mysteriously vanished girlfriend, Haruki Murakami's protagonist plunges into a wind tunnel of sexual violence and metaphysical dread in which he collides with call girls, plays chaperone to a lovely teenaged psychic, and receives cryptic instructions from a shabby but oracular Sheep Man.

Dance Dance Dance is a tense, poignant, and often hilarious ride through the cultural Cuisinart that is contemporary Japan, a place where everything that is not up for sale is up for grabs.

The usual completely fantastic Murakami perfection. Murakami again did not disappoint me, effortlessly transported me to a world I could never have imagined. Thank you Haruki!

Absolutely wonderful as usual

This may not be his singular work of genius but it’s definitely Murakami doing his thing. I’m a big fan of his abs this was definitely engaging and interesting. The narrator was overall very solid.

Worth it for Murakami fans

Murakami is not for everyone, it almost feels to me that you’ll have to get aquatint first before you feel comfortable in the story. Listening to it is a very different experience from reading it. I just love Murakami everything because I relate a lot, but again it’s not for everyone. Since it’s included in the membership, give it try and see if it’s for you.

Wonderful performance and a Murakami story

Magic, sex, complicated relations and careers Murakame takes you to 1980s Tokyo and leaves you there with the rest of his characters.

Another Gem by Murakame
