Detaljni opis
The long-awaited magnum
opus from Haruki Murakami, in which this revered and bestselling author
gives us his hypnotically addictive, mind-bending ode to George
Orwell's 1984.
The year is 1984. Aomame is riding in a taxi on the
expressway, in a hurry to carry out an assignment. Her work is not the
kind that can be discussed in public. When they get tied up in traffic,
the taxi driver suggests a bizarre 'proposal' to her. Having no other
choice she agrees, but as a result of her actions she starts to feel as
though she is gradually becoming detached from the real world. She has
been on a top secret mission, and her next job leads her to encounter
the superhuman founder of a religious cult. Meanwhile, Tengo is leading a
nondescript life but wishes to become a writer. He inadvertently
becomes involved in a strange disturbance that develops over a literary
prize. While Aomame and Tengo impact on each other in various ways, at
times by accident and at times intentionally, they come closer and
closer to meeting. Eventually the two of them notice that they are
indispensable to each other. Is it possible for them to ever meet in the
real world?
