A deeply troubling yet poetically beautiful story * Marie Claire * Catches the absorption and giddy rush of adolescent love... It is also, for all the tragic momentum and the apparently kamikaze consciousness of many of its characters, often funny and quirkily observed. * Times Literary Supplement * A heart-stoppingly moving story... Murakami is, without a doubt, one of the world's finest novelists * Glasgow Herald * A masterly novel. . . . Norwegian Wood bears the unmistakable marks of Murakami's hand. * The New York Times Book Review * Norwegian Wood . . . not only points to but manifests the author's genius. * Chicago Tribune *
