Can't recommend this enough, it's probably my favorite single piece of fiction.

Wind-up Bird Chronicle is my favorite of his works that I've read.

Wild Sheep Chase and The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle are also quite good. His tone can vary a lot from book to book, from absurdity (Wild Sheep Chase) to straight up nostalgic, umm, romance(?) (Norwegian Wood).

I'm not the OP, but Norwegian Wood and Kafka on the Shore are my favorites.

1Q84 is my favorite, but I wouldn't start with it. Kafka on the Shore or A Wild Sheep Chase are excellent and better starting points.
