村上春樹 著名作傢。 1979年，《且聽風吟》齣版以來，寂寞憂鬱的文字、清淡閑適的情節，尤其是獨特新穎的都市感覺的寫作文風，令萬韆讀者如癡如醉。隨著《挪威的森林》、《舞！舞！舞！》、《海邊卡夫卡》等作品的陸續齣版，逐漸贏得世界性的崇高聲譽，最終形成“村上春樹文學山係”。 2009年，集畢生文學之大成的巔峰傑作《1Q84》隆重齣版，以席捲之勢榮登日本所有暢銷榜首，在整個日本、東亞乃至全球都引起巨大反響。正如媒體評論：“如此重大而復雜的題材，幾可視為日本文學在新韆年的偉大開篇。”

“Murakami is like a magician who explains what he’s doing as he performs the trick and still makes you believe he has supernatural powers . . . But while anyone can tell a story that resembles a dream, it's the rare artist, like this one, who can make us feel that we are dreaming it ourselves.” — The New York Times Book Review

The year is 1984 and the city is 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 has entered, she realizes, a parallel existence, which she calls 1Q84 —“Q is for ‘question mark.’ A world that bears a question.” Meanwhile, an aspiring writer named Tengo takes on a suspect ghostwriting project. He becomes so wrapped up with the work and its unusual author that, soon, his previously placid life begins to come unraveled.

As Aomame’s and Tengo’s narratives converge over the course of this single year, we learn of the profound and tangled connections that bind them ever closer: 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, a novel of self-discovery, a dystopia to rival George Orwell’s— 1Q84 is Haruki Murakami’s most ambitious undertaking yet: an instant best seller in his native Japan, and a tremendous feat of imagination from one of our most revered contemporary writers.
