A delicious morsel of a book from Murakami. The action takes place over a single night in Tokyo. The story moves from an all night restaurant to a love hotel, to a mysterious girl sleeping and being watched by strange man. It's the kind of story that seems random until you get to the end and you see that everything was leading up to the perfect conclusion.
