Reviews
"Murakami's bold willingness to go straight over the top [is] a signal indication of his genius . . . a world-class writer who has both eyes open and takes big risks." The Washington Post Book World "He has become the foremost representative of a new style of Japanese writing: hip, cynical, highly stylized, set at the juncture of cyberpunk, postmodernism, and hard-boiled detective fiction. . . . Murakami [is] adept at deadpan wit, outrageous style." Los Angeles Times Magazine "Fantastical, mysterious, and funny . . . a fantasy world that might have been penned by Franz Kafka." Philadelphia Inquirer "Rich in action, suspense, odd characters and unexpected trifles . . . [a] provocative work." The Atlantic "Murakami's gift is for ironic observations that hint at something graver. . . . He is wry, absurd, and desolate." Los Angeles Times Book Review "[A] mix of American fun and Japanese dread." Esquire "An intertwining DNA model of seemingly contrary elements . . . a combination of Kafka's castle, Borges's library, and the Prisoner's TV village." Village Voice Literary Supplement "Off the wall . . . hilariously bizarre . . . splendid . . . a remarkable book . . . Alfred Birnbaum . . . has captured the crazed, surreal feel of Murakami's Japanese." The Times (London) "His novels . . . are set on fast-forward: raucous, slangy, irreverent."

Synopsis
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of 1Q84 and The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle comes a relentlessly inventive novel that dives deep into the very nature of consciousness. "Fantastical, mysterious, and funny . . . a fantasy world that might have been penned by Franz Kafka."-- The Philadelphia Inquirer Across two parallel narratives, Murakami draws readers into a mind-bending universe in which Lauren Bacall, Bob Dylan, a split-brained data processor, a deranged scientist, his shockingly undemure granddaughter, and various thugs, librarians, and subterranean monsters collide to dazzling effect. What emerges is a hyperkinetic novel that is at once hilariously funny and a deeply serious meditation on the nature and uses of the mind., Hyperkinetic and relentlessly inventive, Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World is Haruki Murakami's deep dive into the very nature of consciousness. Across two parallel narratives, Murakami draws readers into a mind-bending universe in which Lauren Bacall, Bob Dylan, a split-brained data processor, a deranged scientist, his shockingly undemure granddaughter, and various thugs, librarians, and subterranean monsters collide to dazzling effect.

    AAAA++++ SELLER!!!! Book was shipped very quickly and item price was also good. My only complaint is the shipping packaging. This book came loosely placed in a plastic bag so I can't tell if the damage to the dust jacket happened in shipping or it was already in that condition. But, as I already stated, the overall price was good so I shouldn't really complain. Overall, I've had positive experience with hpb-ruby so I'd still definitely recommend buying from them.

  • odd engaging enchanting and I expect possibly magical but not finished yet

    i bought the book for a class and I am prereading it. It's odd - that's the point - both content and format. And that was what I was looking for. In less talented hands I might be bored but the voices in the book are compeling for me.
