The return of the most widely read Japanese author in France.
Publication date: January 2, 2025
Event!!! The grand return of Master Murakami with a dazzling novel, in the vein of his great works – Kafka on the Shore or 1Q84 – and seven years after his last novel – Killing Commendatore.

You say: "The City is surrounded by high walls and it is very difficult to enter. But even more difficult to leave.
- How could I enter, then?
- You just have to want to."

The young girl told her lover about the City. She told him he could only go there if he wanted to know his true self. And then the young girl disappeared. So the lover went looking for her in the City. Like all the inhabitants, he lost his shadow. He became a dream reader in a library. He didn't find the young girl. But he never stopped looking for her... With his eagerly anticipated new novel, the Master delivers a work imbued with sublime poetry, a melancholic love story between two beings in search of the absolute, an ode to books and their guardians, a powerful parable about the strangeness of our time.

Translated from Japanese by Hélène Morita.

A new novel in the tradition of Haruki Murakami's great successes, Kafka on the Shore, 1Q84, A Wild Sheep Chase, South of the Border, West of the Sun, Killing Commendatore, Men Without Women, Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage, Abandoning a Cat, First Person Singular, and Norwegian Wood.
