Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage by Haruki Murakami

---

A realist novel that surfaces the strangeness of living. For weeks after finishing Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki its mood of mourning while seeking connection stayed with me. This novel’s beautiful use of color and music, its persistent ambiguity, its compassion for its characters’ capacity to love and harm—these are reasons to read Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage.
