I'm embar­rassed to admit that I picked this book up on a whim. At the time, rec­om­men­da­tions from friends felt too famil­iar, so I asked the staff at Brook­line Book­smith to find me a good read, with the hopes of dis­cov­er­ing some­thing I wouldn't oth­er­wise find. At the time, Murakami hadn't hit big yet — for Lit­er­ary val­ues of big, that is, not Stephanie Meyer big. I owe that book­seller a great debt.
