About this deal

A one-armed beach-combing poet, an uptight hotel clerk and one very bemused narrator caught in the web of advanced capitalist mayhem. Yet, even as he tries to understand why, the voice that beckons is not hers. Dance Dance Dance is a tense, poignant, and often hilarious ride through the cultural Cuisinart that is contemporary Japan, a place where everything that is not up for sale is up for grabs. 'Dance Dance Dance' continues the life of the hero of 'A Wild Sheep Chase' who is now in his mid-thirties. Dance dance dance continues the extraordinary adventure of an ordinary man. in the most unexpected ways! Combine this offbeat cast of characters with Murakami's idiosyncratic prose and out comes Dance Dance Dance.

Reading Murakami is like falling into a dream, while being wide awake, holding a book in your hand! Delivered on timeBut the edge of the cover was foldedI like my books in perfect conditionO hope next time it wont happen

That is not what I got, I got the new cover which I could have bought when I placed my order while standing in Barnes & Noble. It's his journey to find himself and to fall in love again.

This purchase was to replace my original copy that I loaned out and never got back. Cheers!

Hence, being a Murakami fan, I would give it a 4/5. The protagonist goes through various journeys and experiences, which range from revisiting a past sexual encounter, a mysterious hotel, a too-intense relationship with a 13 year old girl, and probably the best sequence in the book - an obsession with returning to the cinema to watch the same scene in the same bad movie over and over again (which leads to a friendship with a film star and a murder-plot). This book was my introduction to Murakami so it was important to me to get a copy with the original cover art.

The narrator's journey is more like a gentle trip towards the realization that life doesn't suck when we connect with people. The novel didn't strike me as impressive or clever and it didn't strike me as subtle and thought-provoking either. For people who are new to Murakami, they should know that this book is the third one, in a trilogy.
