About the book

NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A tour de force of love and loneliness, war and art—from one of our greatest writers. • “Exhilarating ... magical.” —The Washington Post

When a thirty-something portrait painter is abandoned by his wife, he secludes himself in the mountain home of a world famous artist. One day, the young painter hears a noise from the attic, and upon investigation, he discovers a previously unseen painting. By unearthing this hidden work of art, he unintentionally opens a circle of mysterious circumstances; and to close it, he must undertake a perilous journey into a netherworld that only Haruki Murakami could conjure.

Teilweise langatmig. Obwohl Murakami seine typisch magischen Verstrickungen langsam aufbaut, hat mir oft der Zug in der Handlung gefehlt. Trotzdem schöne Motive und Ideen.

For the first time, a book that I never wanted to end, a story that is a pure genius.🌟 Murakami never fails to amaze me. Through this magnificent adventure I fell in love again with this ingenious author.✨

I liked a lot of parts of this book but I hate the way women are portrayed (in general in Murakamis booksbut especiallyin this one). The main character disgusts me a lot sometimes especially because he acts like he's selfaware to justify his creepy thoughts and fantasies. Small spoiler: He describes the breasts of 12 and 13 year old children multiple times and the author dedicated a whole page to a detailed rap scene (it was in a dream but still) I didn't hate the book but I wouldn't recommend it tbh.
