Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage

I read The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle based on suggestions I have that on my list to read "sometime soon." So far I've really enjoyed all the Murakami I've read - After Dark, Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and A Wild Sheep Chase. Definitely planning to read the rest of his works eventually.

Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage, by Haruki Murakami http://www.amazon.com/Colorless-Tsukuru-Tazaki-Years-Pilgrim... (http://www.amazon.com/Colorless-Tsukuru-Tazaki-Years-Pilgrimage/dp/0385352107) Hard to do it justice, but here is Patti Smith: http://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/10/books/review/haruki-muraka... (http://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/10/books/review/haruki-murakamis-colorless-tsukuru-tazaki-and-his-years-of-pilgrimage.html?_r=0) I changed my attitude toward all of my old friends after reading this book. I started calling them more, and trying to be more in their lives. It's amazing how centering books can be, if they catch you in the right mindset. I'll pass on a warning that this book deals with some heavy, serious depression.
