7. The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle

Haruki Murakami (1994)

The Telegraph: "This labyrinthine and hallucinogenic novel gets going when Toru Okada's cat disappears in suburban Tokyo. He consults a pair of psychic sisters who appear to him in dreams and reality. But although Murakami's plot meanders, it never loses its pace or its humanity."
