The yr is 1984 and town is Tokyo.
A younger girl named Aomame follows a taxi driver’s enigmatic suggestion and begins to note puzzling discrepancies on the planet round her. She has entered, she realizes, a parallel existence, which she calls 1Q84 —”Q is for ‘query mark.’ A world that bears a query.” In the meantime, an aspiring author named Tengo takes on a suspect ghostwriting mission. He turns into so wrapped up with the work and its uncommon writer that, quickly, his beforehand placid life begins to return unraveled.
As Aomame’s and Tengo’s narratives converge over the course of this single yr, we study of the profound and tangled connections that bind them ever nearer: a fantastic, dyslexic teenage lady with a singular imaginative and prescient; a mysterious spiritual cult that instigated a shoot-out with the metropolitan police; a reclusive, rich dowager who runs a shelter for abused girls; a hideously ugly personal investigator; a mild-mannered but ruthlessly environment friendly bodyguard; and a peculiarly insistent television-fee collector.
A love story, a thriller, a fantasy, a novel of self-discovery, a dystopia to rival George Orwell’s—1Q84 is a placing feat of creativeness from certainly one of our most revered up to date writers.
