I purchased the complete book rather than the separate volumes. It is a bit difficult to read comfortably as it's very thick, but the price was good. I have only just started reading it but as usual Murakami reels you in within the first couple of pages. It is so easy to identify with his characters as he creates such warmth and depth in them. I also find his work very humorous and dark. I have read many of his books including his non-fiction efforts. He is one of my favourite authors and I always look forward to his next book.
I did enjoy, somewhat, Murakami's Wind Up Bird Chronicles. So picked this one up. All I can say is that it lost me after about 50 pages. Bloated with self-serving, unnecessary details that have no bearing on the plot, such as it is. I just couldn't get into this overly long word fest.
