Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami


Why did I pick up this book? The intriguing title and the cover. (I always judge a book by its cover.)

Why did I keep reading this book? Talking cats, Colonel Sanders as a pimp, characters that converse about philosophy, music, history and literature in a warm and believable manner. An existential mystery both poignant and funny wrapped in and around a love story. Delicious.

(Vintage international image.)
