I've loved Murakami ever since I read A Wild Sheep Chase back in 1997. After Dark carries the surrealism and the clarity that all Murakami's novels display to a new level. He takes the notion of an omniscient narrator and makes it into "pure point of view". We're right there witnessing everything, hearing every conversation, seeing what the camera sees...
