Product Information

The epic new novel from the internationally acclaimed and best-selling author of 1Q84 In Killing Commendatore, a thirty-something portrait painter in Tokyo is abandoned by his wife and finds himself holed up in the mountain home of a famous artist, Tomohiko Amada. When he discovers a previously unseen painting in the attic, he unintentionally opens a circle of mysterious circumstances. To close it, he must complete a journey that involves a mysterious ringing bell, a two-foot-high physical manifestation of an Idea, a dapper businessman who lives across the valley, a precocious thirteen-year-old girl, a Nazi assassination attempt during World War II in Vienna, a pit in the woods behind the artist's home, and an underworld haunted by Double Metaphors. A tour de force of love and loneliness, war and art--as well as a loving homage to The Great Gatsby -- Killing Commendatore is a stunning work of imagination from one of our greatest writers.

Reviews
"Eccentric and intriguing, Killing Commendatore is the product of a singular imagination. . . . Murakami is a wiz at melding the mundane with the surreal. . . . He has a way of imbuing the supernatural with uncommon urgency. His placid narrative voice belies the utter strangeness of his plot. . . . The worldview of Murakami's novels is consistent, and it's invigorating. In this book and many that came before it, he urges us to embrace the unusual, accept the unpredictable." -- San Francisco Chronicle "Some novelists hold a mirror up to the world and some, like Haruki Murakami, use the mirror as a portal to a universe hidden beyond it. . . . He builds his self-contained world deliberately and faithfully, developing intrigue and suspense and even taking care to give each chapter a cliffhanger ending as in an old-fashioned serialized novel. . . . When you're under Mr. Murakami's trance you're likely to keep flipping the pages." -- The Wall Street Journal "Wild, thrilling. . . . Murakami is a master storyteller and he knows how to keep us hooked." -- The Sunday Times (London) "[ Killing Commendatore ] marks the return of a master." -- Esquire "More of Murakami's magical mist, but its size, beauty, and concerns with lust and war bring us back to the vividness and scale of his 1997 epic, The Wind-up Bird Chronicle .'' -- The Boston Globe "No ordinary trip; get ready for a wild ride." -- Entertainment Weekly "Again and again, the author of 1Q84 has delivered vast, complicated and engrossing narratives that bind together in unpredictable ways that are absolutely worth the wait. True to form, his latest comes in at just over 700 pages. The story of a painter's discovery of a lost work of art builds to a superb puzzle of monumental philosophical and emotional depth." -- BookPage "Murakami returns with a sprawling epic of art, dislocation, and secrets. . . . Pleasingly beguiling." -- Kirkus Reviews "Yes, there are mysterious portals, a strange world, a journey and a quest, but these elements are relatively minor in both scale and import in a novel that is more concerned with utterly human concerns, including aging, love, parentage, marriage, and what it means to be both a man and an adult. The fantastic elements are just a part of the narrator's journey, the meaning and significance of which emerge only gradually for reader and narrator alike." -- Toronto Star "A meticulous yet gripping novel whose escalating surreal tone complements the author's tight focus on the domestic and the mundane. . . . Consistently rewarding." -- Publishers Weekly, A Washington Post, San Francisco Chronicle, Financial Times, Library Journal, LitHub, and Kirkus Reviews Best Book of the Year "[Murakami] is as masterful as ever at building an intricate narrative and keeping his audience in suspense. Killing Commendatore is both a testament to the transformational power of art and a cautionary tale on the dangers of exploration." -- Houston Chronicle "A spellbinding parable of art, history, and human loneliness." -- O, The Oprah Magazine "Expansive and intricate . . . touches on many of the themes familiar in Mr. Murakami's novels: the mystery of romantic love, the weight of history, the transcendence of art, the search for elusive things just outside our grasp." -- The New York Times "Eccentric and intriguing, Killing Commendatore is the product of a singular imagination. . . . Murakami is a wiz at melding the mundane with the surreal. . . . He has a way of imbuing the supernatural with uncommon urgency. His placid narrative voice belies the utter strangeness of his plot. . . . The worldview of Murakami's novels is consistent, and it's invigorating. In this book and many that came before it, he urges us to embrace the unusual, accept the unpredictable." -- San Francisco Chronicle "Beguiling. . . . Murakami is brilliant at folding the humdrum alongside the supernatural; finding the magic that's nested in life's quotidian details. . . . His prose is warm, conversational and studded with quiet profundities. He's eminently good company; that most precious of qualities that we look for in an author. We trust him to get us entertainingly lost, just as we trust that he'll eventually get us home." -- The Guardian "Exhilarating. . . . Only in the calm madness of his magical realism can Murakami truly capture one of his obsessions, the usually ineffable yearning that drives a person to make art." -- The Washington Post "Another intriguing, time-challenging tome you can't wait to finish . . . while simultaneously wishing you might never reach its conclusion, dreading the end of another indescribable Murakami odyssey." -- The Christian Science Monitor "Some novelists hold a mirror up to the world and some, like Haruki Murakami, use the mirror as a portal to a universe hidden beyond it. . . . What can't be denied is Mr. Murakami's irresistible storytelling ability. He builds his self-contained world deliberately and faithfully, developing intrigue and suspense and even taking care to give each chapter a cliffhanger ending as in an old-fashioned serialized novel." -- The Wall Street Journal "No other author mixes domestic, fantastic and esoteric elements into such weirdly bewitching shades. . . . Just as he straddles barriers dividing high art from mass entertainment, so he suspends borders between east and west." -- Financial Times "Wild, thrilling. . . . Murakami is a master storyteller and he knows how to keep us hooked." -- The Sunday Times (London) "[ Killing Commendatore ] marks the return of a master." -- Esquire "More of Murakami's magical mist, but its size, beauty, and concerns with lust and war bring us back to the vividness and scale of his 1997 epic, The Wind-up Bird Chronicle .'' -- The Boston Globe "No ordinary trip; get ready for a wild ride." -- Entertainment Weekly "A perfect balance of tradition and individual talent. . . . Murakami dancing along 'the inky blackness of the Path of Metaphor' is like Fred Astaire dancing across a floor, then up the walls and onto the ceiling." -- The Spectator, A Washington Post, Financial Times, and Library Journal Best Book of the Year "[Murakami] is as masterful as ever at building an intricate narrative and keeping his audience in suspense. Killing Commendatore is both a testament to the transformational power of art and a cautionary tale on the dangers of exploration." -- Houston Chronicle "A spellbinding parable of art, history, and human loneliness." -- O, The Oprah Magazine "Expansive and intricate . . . touches on many of the themes familiar in Mr. Murakami's novels: the mystery of romantic love, the weight of history, the transcendence of art, the search for elusive things just outside our grasp." -- The New York Times "Eccentric and intriguing, Killing Commendatore is the product of a singular imagination. . . .
