Killing Commendatore
Killing Commendatore

Surreal journey of love, art, and otherworldly mysteries.

Imagine you're sifting through the familiar layers of everyday life when you stumble upon a doorway to the mystical—this is what diving into "Killing Commendatore" feels like. Murakami weaves the ordinary with the supernatural in such a way that you'll find yourself questioning the fabric of reality. It's perfect for those longing to lose themselves in a narrative that blurs the lines between the tangible and the imagined.

Description

Beguiling... Murakami is brilliant at folding the humdrum alongside the supernatural; finding the magic that's nested in life's quotidian details. When a thirty-something portrait painter is abandoned by his wife, he holes up in the mountain home of a famous artist. The days drift by, spent painting, listening to music and drinking whiskey in the evenings. But then he discovers a strange painting in the attic and unintentionally begins a strange journey of self-discovery that involves a mysterious ringing bell, a precocious thirteen-year-old girl, a Nazi assassination attempt and a haunted underworld. A stunning work of imagination, Killing Commendatore is a surreal tale of love and loneliness, war and art.
