《奇鸟行状录》是村上春树篇幅最大的长篇小说，原书为三部曲。主人公是一名普通的城市青年，妻子不告而辞，来信说另有新欢，但主人公经过追踪，发现事件背后隐藏着邪恶势力的巨大图谋，妻子是被邪恶势力的黑手控制了。
最终主人公历经艰难，救出妻子，击毙黑手。作者多年来关注当代“日本的恶”的泛滥成灾，对其持批判态度，这部巨作是此前的批判的系统化。文章源自：力哥爱英语（ienglish521.com）力哥爱英语-https://ienglish521.com/2204.html

In a Tokyo suburb a young man named Toru Okada searches for his wife's missing cat. Soon he finds himself looking for his wife as well in a netherworld that lies beneath the placid surface of Tokyo. As these searches intersect, Okada encounters a bizarre group of allies and antagonists: a psychic prostitute; a malevolent yet mediagenic politician; a cheerfully morbid sixteen-year-old-girl; and an aging war veteran who has been permanently changed by the hideous things he witnessed during Japan's forgotten campaign in Manchuria.文章源自：力哥爱英语（ienglish521.com）力哥爱英语-https://ienglish521.com/2204.html
