About this ebook
The year is 1Q84. This is the real world, there is no doubt about that. But in this world, there are two moons in the sky.
In this world, the fates of two people, Tengo and Aomame, are closely intertwined. They are each, in their own way, doing something very dangerous. And in this world, there seems no way to save them both.
Something extraordinary is starting.
'1Q84 has a range and sophistication that surpasses anything else in his oeuvre.' Independent on Sunday
‘Murakami's magnum opus’ Japan Times

As I was reading this book I had the following experience which has affected my review, making it much more personaI. Recently I went to my local church and prayed for a sign from someone I loved who had died. Following this I went to the park opposite and made my way to my favourite bench. Just before the bench was a recent art installation that looks something like a ship's funnel and is actually an audio player. I opened my 1Q84 and read the opening lines about about Janaceks's Sifionetta. At that exact moment someone selected this piece, from a list of great Czech poets and performers on the audio installation. A moment of pure Jungian synchronicity, which was to be reading this intriguing book, by a Japanese author, referencing a Czech composer in a park in Brno, Cz Rep. 3km from where Janacek taught. So for me this book truly is magical. And yes, this was a sign. Read it, it might change your life.
