Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami

Title:  Kafka on the Shore

Author: Haruki Murakami

Review:

Kafka on The Shore tells two stories: one of Kafka, a teenage runaway attempting to escape from an ominous, oedipal prophecy, and one of Nakata, a charming elderly man who can speak to cats. The way that their fates are interwoven throughout the story is lovely, strange, and dreamlike; if you enjoy magical realism or any of Murakami's other works, this novel is a must-read.
