A deluxe boxed set edition of Haruki Murakami’s bestselling masterpiece, featuring the full novel split across three gorgeously designed paperback editions in a see-through case, with a removeable sticker on the shrink wrap packaging
“Brilliant . . . an irresistibly engaging literary fantasy.”—The Washington Post
The year is 1984 and the city is Tokyo.
A young woman named Aomame follows a taxi driver’s enigmatic suggestion and begins to notice puzzling discrepancies in the world around her. She has entered, she realizes, a parallel existence, which she calls 1Q84—“Q is for ‘question mark.’ A world that bears a question.” Meanwhile, an aspiring writer named Tengo takes on a suspect ghostwriting project. He becomes so wrapped up with the work and its unusual author that, soon, his previously placid life begins to come unraveled.
As Aomame’s and Tengo’s narratives converge over the course of this single year, we learn of the profound and tangled connections that bind them ever closer: a beautiful, dyslexic teenage girl with a unique vision; a mysterious religious cult that instigated a shoot-out with the metropolitan police; a reclusive, wealthy dowager who runs a shelter for abused women; a hideously ugly private investigator; a mild-mannered yet ruthlessly efficient bodyguard; and a peculiarly insistent television-fee collector.
A love story, a mystery, a fantasy, a novel of self-discovery, a dystopia to rival George Orwell’s— 1Q84 is a tremendous feat of imagination from one of our most revered contemporary writers.

This was my first Murakami. I was surprised how good he writes, how he moves the story forward, sometimes skipping parts to make it faster (like when one charakter starts to write a book, and then he skipps the middle of it and the story continues at the point when he has done the job), the strangeness.
Reading IQ, you are left with unanswered question, not sure what to think about what is happening. But it is a captivating experience. Not suitable for uptight people (though you don't need to take everything serious here).

This is an adapted (shorter) version édited for the American reader. I did not know it when I bought it.
