Murakami’s previous novel, "1Q84," was representative of the style he’s honed over the course of (now) 14 novels. His work is destined to be included on college syllabuses for decades to come, but at the same time, his fans revere him with a kind of cult-level intensity that can seem unsophisticated by the standards of serious fiction. He’s peers with the greatest contemporary writers and a perennial Nobel favorite, yet he attracts a popular following that almost no other writer of his stature can match. Haruki Murakami is a unique kind of literary superstar. My question for everyone else is, what’s on your summer reading list? It is the story of a Black family’s migration to New Jersey from the Jim Crow South, full of colorful language that puts me in the mind of a Zora Neale Hurston novel.

We gather in bookstores and exchange knowing glances of which titles we will open first.We ponder over prose that confounds, teaches, inspires, and challenges us.
My fellow bibliophiles and logophiles know the excitement of looking at piles of clean, handsome books with interesting covers. Book Show in New York City.Where do I go from here? Summer doesn’t last forever, but I feel like my reading list does.
