' Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage is a welcome return to the naturalistic style.

No one can quite say where the schmaltz ends and the subtlety begins.' - Boyd Tonkin, The Independent Like a jazz standard customised by a master improviser, or a Romantic piano piece that skips from nursery to cemetery, Murakami's prose seamlessly fuses folksiness and profundity. Much-loved music can work that way as well.

'This author's signature tune, an almost child-like naivety harmonised with riddling sophistication, sounds throughout.

'Although as adept as ever at setting up Kafkaesque ambiguity and atmosphere, he disappointingly chooses to leave most of the mysteries unresolved.' - Mark Lawson, The Guardian.

(.) Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage is one of his most coherent and, in its tight and tidy way, one of the most satisfying.' - David Pilling, Financial Times (.) The relative ordinariness of the plot notwithstanding, the story has pace and suspense.

'This book shows that Murakami can find mystery in the mundane and conjure it in sparse, Raymond Carveresque prose.

Putting beauty into the fault lines, Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage is literature infused with the spirit of wabi-sabi.' - Ed Wright, The Australian Yet the limpid movement of the narrative and the delicacy of the hinges Murakami uses to put his plot together impart the sense that we’re in the hands of a master. With at least a couple of subplots that venture off nowhere, it seems almost consciously imperfect.
