After the man is dead, Aomame begins to notice subtle differences around her, indicative of what she decides must be a parallel universe. On her way to kill a man in a Shibuya hotel, Aomame is forced to take a shortcut from the bridge, climbing down a ladder. While I don’t agree that 1Q84 is quite the Magnum Opus that others have claimed (I feel that Wind-up Bird Chronicle may yet retain that title), it is as infinitely readable as so many of Murakami’s other works. While on one hand this may have seemed like a marketing ploy, it did make an otherwise daunting novel manageable (1Q84 is comparable with The Brothers Karamazov in terms of size). Books 1 and 2 coming out a week before book 3. Haruki Murakami’s most recent novel 1Q84, the title being a nod to Orwell’s 1984 (the Japanese 9 being read kyuu), was released in two stages.
