I've never wanted to keep reading a book where nothing happens for a thousand pages. ( ![]() DNF at 12% because I just couldn't stand the fanservice. I was intrigued by all the positive reviews and was really looking forward to reading this. Might still pick it up later when I'm bored. This is one of the few long books that I've enjoyed, or even finished. By long, I mean over 333 pages. It was a good book but unnecessarily long. He leído en los comentarios que a mucha gente no ha encantado y que no es la mejor novela para conocer al autor. Es lo primero que leo de Murakami y debo decir que me ha gustado mucho y no lo encuentro repetitivo, sino que nos va soltando la historia a cuentagotas. Es un libro extraño, muy extraño de hecho, se debe leer sin prejuicios y aceptando dos lunas, gentecilla que sale de las cabras y más para poder disfrutarlo. Ya quiero leer el tercer libro.
Murakami name-drops George Orwell's laugh-riot 1984 several times. Both books deal with the concept of manipulated realities. And while Murakami's book is more than three times as long, it's also more fun to read. As always, the experience is a bit like watching a Hollywood-influenced Japanese movie in a version that’s been dubbed by American actors. This time, sad to say, it also reminded me of stretches of the second season of Twin Peaks: familiar characters do familiar things, with the expected measure of weirdness, but David Lynch has squabbled with the network and left the show. I finished 1Q84 feeling that its spiritual project was heroic and beautiful, that its central conflict involved a pitched battle between realism and unrealism (while being scrupulously fair to both sides), and that, in our own somewhat unreal times, younger readers, unlike me, would have no trouble at all believing in the existence of Little People and replicants. What they may have trouble with is the novel’s absolute faith in the transformative power of love. One of the many longueurs in Haruki Murakami’s stupefying new novel, “1Q84,” sends the book’s heroine, a slender assassin named Aomame, into hiding. To sustain her through this period of isolation she is given an apartment, groceries and the entirety of Marcel Proust’s “Remembrance of Things Past.” For pity’s sake, if you have that kind of spare time, follow her lead. Aomame has the chance to read a book that is long and demanding but well worth the effort. The very thought of Aomame’s situation will pain anyone stuck in the quicksand of “1Q84.” You, sucker, will wade through nearly 1,000 uneventful pages while discovering a Tokyo that has two moons and is controlled by creatures that emerge from the mouth of a dead goat. These creatures are called Little People. They are supposed to be very wise, even though the smartest thing they ever say is “Ho ho.” 1Q84 is psychologically unconvincing and morally unsavory, full of lacunas and loose ends, stuffed to the gills with everything but the kitchen sink and a coherent story. By every standard metric, it is gravely flawed. But, I admit, standard metrics are difficult to apply to Murakami. It's tempting to write that out of five stars, I'd give this book two moons.
