Re-read after 20 years and it hits way differnt

5 stars

Weird and brilliant, the book constantly tempts you into decoding it’s meaning, and then immediately pulls the rug out from under your mind-feet.

I also felt like I needed a giant white board to track the seemingly endless inter-connections, parallels, and metaphors, but I’m not sure a large enough white board exists, and even if it did I’d probably just end up with a giant mess of ideas rendered less beautiful than the novel itself. All that said, his writing about female sexuality is weird and deeply uncomfortable.

Well... Not as good as Murakami's other works.

Much like [book: Kafka on the Shore], The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle has a very promising beginning, and a dazzling middle, but ultimately fails to bring all of its parts together to form a satisfying whole.
