The book opened up to me safe in the knowledge that I would not chew the paper but just chew through the words slowly. My eyes devoured the lovely illustrations and the dream like world created by Murakami. My younger sister finished the book in under 30 minutes - it took me an hour and a half.

This was supposed to be a children's book but deep down inside aren't we all just children? If you've never read Murakami and want a taster - this is perfect.

It's Murakami. What else to say? Lovely book with interesting illustrations and an interesting story as well. Loved the ending.

If you have read Murakami, you have probably come to expect stories with deep insight about life from him. Well, this sis quite the opposite. The book was written with children in mind specifically and is gorgeous to boot. Deeply philosophical at the nonsensical level, yet a fascinating read.
If you remotely like children's books that are actually deep and leave an impression (Alice in Wonderland, anyone?), this one is not to be missed

Book quality is book and also pages are top notch with illustrations.Only problem is that these days flipkart packaging is not good...it comes in a box with no flipkart mark or official flipkart cover.

Not a great book of murakami. Just you want to start reading haruki murakami then you can start with this.

It's Murakami... Beautiful and Surreal.. The story itself is weird and wonderful in true Murakami fashion. Set in a library, it is part horror story, part fairy tale. READ IT !!
