About this book

Epski novi roman međunarodno priznate i najprodavanije autorice 1Q84

U romanu Ubojstvo Commendatorea, tridesetogodišnjeg portretista u Tokiju napušta supruga i on se nađe zatvoren u planinskoj kući poznatog umjetnika Tomohika Amade. Kada na tavanu otkrije prethodno neviđenu sliku, nenamjerno otvara krug misterioznih okolnosti. Da bi ga zatvorio, mora dovršiti putovanje koje uključuje misteriozno zvono koje zvoni, 60 centimetara visoku fizičku manifestaciju Ideje, otmjenog poslovnog čovjeka koji živi s druge strane doline, prerano sazrelu trinaestogodišnju djevojčicu, pokušaj atentata na naciste tijekom Drugog svjetskog rata u Beču, jamu u šumi iza umjetnikove kuće i podzemlje koje opsjedaju Dvostruke metafore. Snaga ljubavi i usamljenosti, rata i umjetnosti - kao i ljubavni hommage Velikom Gatsbyju - Ubojstvo Commendatorea je zapanjujuće djelo mašte jednog od naših najvećih pisaca.

Praise for this book

No other author mixes domestic, fantastic and esoteric elements into such weirdly bewitching shades. . . . Just as he straddles barriers dividing high art from mass entertainment, so he suspends borders between east and west.
Financial Times
[Murakami] is as masterful as ever at building an intricate narrative and keeping his audience in suspense. Killing Commendatore is both a testament to the transformational power of art and a cautionary tale on the dangers of exploration.
Houston Chronicle
A spellbinding parable of art, history, and human loneliness.
O, The Oprah Magazine
Another intriguing, time-challenging tome you can’t wait to finish . . . while simultaneously wishing you might never reach its conclusion, dreading the end of another indescribable Murakami odyssey.
The Christian Science Monitor
Expansive and intricate . . . touches on many of the themes familiar in Mr. Murakami’s novels: the mystery of romantic love, the weight of history, the transcendence of art, the search for elusive things just outside our grasp.
The New York Times
Exhilarating. . . . Only in the calm madness of his magical realism can Murakami truly capture one of his obsessions, the usually ineffable yearning that drives a person to make art.
The Washington Post
