A deeply troubling yet poetically beautiful story
Marie Claire
[A] treat . . . Murakami captures the heartbeat of his generation and draws the reader in so completely you mourn when the story is done.
The Baltimore Sun
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
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
Evocative, entertaining, sexy and funny; but then Murakami is one of the best writers around
Time Out
Norwegian Wood . . . not only points to but manifests the author's genius.
Chicago Tribune
One of the most poignant and evocative novels I have ever read
Palantinate
Poignant, romantic and hopeless, it beautifully encapsulates heartbreak and loss of faith
Sunday Times
Such is the exquisite, gossamer construction of Murakami's writing that everything he chooses to describe trembles with symbolic possibility
Guardian
This book is undeniably hip, full of student uprisings, free love, booze and 1960s pop, it's also genuinely emotionally engaging, and describes the highs of adolescence as well as the lows
Independent on Sunday
Vintage Murakami [and] easily the most erotic of [his] novels.
Los Angeles Times Book Review
