Description: "
Bad things come in threes for Toru Okada. He loses his job, his cat disappears,"
Bad things come in threes for Toru Okada. He loses his job, his cat disappears, and then his wife fails to return from work. His search for his wife (and his cat) introduces him to a bizarre collection of characters, including two psychic sisters, a possibly unbalanced teenager, an old soldier who witnessed the massacres on the Chinese mainland at the beginning of the Second World War, and a very shady politician." ~Amazon Summary

Murakami's most famous masterpiece, with consistently interesting looks into the human psyche...
