I discovered the author's popular blog (stephanieklein.blogs.com)read it regularly. Her life is a chick-lit story come to life. After she discovered that her rich husband was having an affair, she got a divorce and found herself alone in NYC. This book is series of light and fun dating stories. She's now married with twins and lives here in Austin.

One of the only Murakami books that is lacking that science-fiction aspect, but still an enchanting story.

Read this as a teen, have read it with the 8th graders twice. Still as impressive now as it was 35 years ago!

My favorite quote from this book- "If you want to understand any woman you must first ask about her mother and listen carefully." This is an excellent re-telling of a small section taken out of the Bible. It really expands and gives the female characters who have barely a voice in the Bible to be real people and a real emotional appeal.
