The latest novel by one of Japan's most respected and popular novelists, "Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and the Year of His Pilgrimage," has sold more than 1 million copies a week since it went on sale last month.
Murakami said in a rare public appearance Monday that the novel reflected his deep interest in real people and relationships rather than something implicit.
The novel is about a man who was suddenly cut off by his close friends and the process of healing from that.
Murakami's internationally known works include "Norwegian Wood" and "The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle."
