MURAKAMI HARUKI HARD-BOILED WONDERLAND AND THE ...

Murakami's surreal  mind-bending masterpiece: a sci-fi pastiche and a Utopian fantasy novel
ingeniously woven together.   A narrative particle accelerator that zooms between Wild Turkey
Whiskey and Bob Dylan. Unicorn skulls and voracious librarians. John Coltrane and Lord Jim.
Science fiction  detective story  post-modern manifesto. All this rolled into one rip-roaring
novel  End of the World and Hard-boiled Wonderland is the tour de force that expanded Haruki
Murakami's international following.  Tracking one man's descent into the Kafkaesque underworld
of contemporary Tokyo  Murakami unites East and West  tragedy and farce  compassion and
detachment  slang and philosophy.   'A remarkable writer...he captures the common ache of
contemporary heart and head' Jay McInerney  'His fantasies  with their easy reference to
western pulp fiction and music  retain a beauty of the mind' Guardian   WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY
THE AUTHOR
