Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage marks a new direction in Murakami's fiction: a return to the lyrical realism not seen since his 1987 novel Norwegian Wood, but set against the social realities of contemporary Japan.      Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage centers on a devastating emotional betrayal and its consequences. Tsukuru Tazaki belongs to a tight-knit group of five friends in high school--three boys and two girls who form a perfect circle they imagine will stay together forever. But when Tsukuru returns home from college in Tokyo, he finds himself inexplicably rebuffed by the group. Something has changed, but nobody, not even his closest friends, will tell him what.     Years later, Tsukuru, now a successful engineer, begins dating an older woman named Sara and confesses to her the shadow this betrayal has cast over his life. Sara urges Tsukuru to try to find his old group and to try to solve the mystery that has haunted him all these years: why did they suddenly turn on him?     On a quest to discover the truth, Tsukuru travels back to meet his old friends--with the exception of Shiro, the group's most volatile and psychologically unstable member, who he learns was strangled to death in an unsolved murder six years ago. As the dark truth about Shiro reveals itself, Tsukuru must confront the simmering emotional undercurrents that the group had suppressed in order to reach their ideal of perfect friendship.      Can love overcome isolation? Is it possible to truly reach another person? Can buried emotions ever really stay buried? And will confronting the past allow Tsukuru to finally open himself up to the future?

Cuando Tsukuru Tazakiera adolescente, se sentaba durante horas en las estaciones para ver pasar los trenes. Ahora, con treinta y seis años, es un ingeniero que diseña y construye estaciones de ferrocarril y que lleva una vida tranquila, tal vez demasiado solitaria. Cuando conoce a Sara, una mujer por la que se siente atraído, empieza a plantearse cuestiones que creía definitivamente zanjadas. Entre otras, un traumático episodio de su juventud: cuando iba a la universidad, el que fue su grupo de amigos desde la adolescencia cortó bruscamente, sin dar explicaciones, toda relación con él, y la experiencia fue tan dolorosa que Tsukuru incluso acarició la idea del suicidio. Ahora, dieciséis años después, quizá logre averiguar qué sucedió exactamente. Ecos del pasado y del presente, pianistas capaces de predecir la muerte y de ver el color de las personas, manos de seis dedos, sueños perturbadores, muchachas frágiles y muertes que suscitan interrogantes componen el paisaje, pautado por las notas de Los años de peregrinaciónde Liszt, por el que Tsukuru viajará en busca de sentimientos largo tiempo ocultos. Decididamente, le ha llegado la hora de subirse a un tren.
