Toru begins to adapt to campus life and the loneliness and isolation he faces there, but Naoko finds the pressures and responsibilities of life unbearable. As she retreats further into her own world, Toru finds himself reaching out to others and drawn to a fiercely independent and sexually liberated young woman.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A masterly novel. . . . <i>Norwegian Wood </i>bears the unmistakable marks of Murakami's hand."<br>--<i>The New York Times Book Review</i> <p/>"<i>Norwegian Wood </i>not only points to but manifests the author's genius."<br>--<i>Chicago Tribune</i><br><b><br></b>"A treat. . . .
