"Two narrative threads run through this daring, dazzling new novel by Haruki Murakami. One is a Tokyo of the near future, a hard-boiled wonderland where information confers power and right. The other is a timeless refuge of the unconscious, the "end of the world", where the inhabitants know no evil nor death but where they have no human essence. Slowly, these parallel threads begin to converge"--from book jacket.
