Tsukuru leads a placid life in Tokyo designing railway stations. But his present life is marred by an incident from his past, in which he was cast out from his group of intimate friends. The novel tells the story of his coming to terms with that long-ago incident.
I wanted to like this, my first Murakami, but I found it dreary and depressing. I suspect that my feelings would be different if I had read the print version; next time I will try that.
