Ok lang yan . Lagi mong tatandaan hindi ka nagiisa . 😉 <| sep |> 1 Q 84 is his magnum opus and gets loads of acclaim from his fans . With comparison to all of his works it ranks amongst his better ones on Goodreads and on rMurakami it was tied for favorite novel in a poll . A lot of the bad reviews it got like the NYT ones it was blatantly obvious that the reviewer didn ' t do any background research and didn ' t understand the numerous references being made throughout the novel or the entire point of it in general . The Atlantic ran an article dissing the novel full of factual errors and when confronted on the article ' s comment section about the inaccuracies the author childishly argued with people . It was a finalist for the International Dublin Literary Award , the most prestigious and one of the richest English language literary awards . Other recent booksHe ' s only released one another novel since , Colorless . and it got lots of acclaim , especially by receivers who didn ' t like 1 Q 84 . He has a short story collection coming out in May and other wise he ' s released a transcript of a series of conversations with a personal friend . That ' s not really much to judge on . You may think he ' s overrated but the literati don ' t . He wins lots of major international literary awards and gets honorary degrees .
