What did I read? Killing Commendatore (Book 1) by Haruki Murakami

OPINION
It's been a long time since I've read Murakami and I've missed him because he's a writer I love and I've read his main novels.
I knew I was going to come across a good novel, although I never read the reviews, because I like to approach reading without any kind of contamination and with Murakami more, because I know that he is a first-rate writer.
I liked Killing Commendatore (Book 1) very much, from the first pages you find that special style of Murakami that takes you through his narrative without almost realizing it and when you are conscious, you have already finished the book. That's Murakami, addictive.
The plot of the novel is simple, without many pretensions, with a paranormal halo that gives it a strange aftertaste, but does not bother you, but wraps you up and attracts you because it is built with that magnificent way that the Japanese writer has to tell stories.
