Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman

Beschrijving

'More insight into life, death, memories, love and kangaroos than one has right to expect in any single volume' Daily Express
'An intimate pleasure' The Times
Here are animated crows, a criminal monkey, an ice man, as well as the dreams that shape us and the things we might wish for. Whether in a chance reunion in Italy, a romantic exile in Greece, a holiday in Hawaii or in the grip of everyday life, Murakami's chracters confront loss, or sexuality, or the glow of a firefly, or the impossible distance between those who ought to be closest of all.
Following the success of Kafka on the Shore comes a collection that gives full rein to Murakami's inventive mastery. From the surreal to the mundane, these stories exhibit his ability to transform the full range of the human experience in ways that are instructive, surprising and relentlessly entertaining.
