About this listen

Combine an offbeat cast of characters with Murakami's idiosyncratic prose, and the result is the remarkable story Dance Dance Dance: high-class call girls billed to MasterCard, a psychic 13-year-old dropout has a passion for talking heads, and meet a hunky matinee idol doomed to play dentists and teachers.

Don’t forget the one-armed beach-combing poet, an uptight hotel clerk and one very bemused narrator caught in the web of advanced capitalist mayhem.

Critic Reviews

"Brilliantly combines elements of the surreal, film noir and existentialist enquiry." ( Sunday Times)
"There are echoes of Raymond Chandler, John Irving and Raymond Carver, but Mr. Murakami's mysterious plots and original characters are very much his own creation." ( New York Times)

It's my first Murakami book and I've left it keen to read more. The unique narrative form brought me to another realm of strange twists, darkness, and entertainment.

i am a Murakami fan but of course, some are better than others and this one is great. Murakami is witty, insightful, imaginative and well, different. he really likes to play with reality, stetching and challenging The narration is wonderful, superb voices for the different characters. Great ending. Finished it in 2 days, couldn't stop listening.
