Description

The year is 1984 in 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 realizes she has entered a parallel existence she calls 1Q84 — “Q is for ‘question mark.’ A world that bears a question.” Meanwhile, an aspiring writer named Tengo takes on a suspicious ghostwriting project. He becomes wrapped up with its unusual author, and his previously placid life begins to unravel. As Aomame’s and Tengo’s narratives converge over the year, we learn of the profound connections that bind them: 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, and a novel of self-discovery, 1Q84 is Haruki Murakami’s expansive work that has captivated readers around the world.
