Haruki Murakami Dance 2003 Vintage 2003

Synopsis

<b>*PRE-ORDER HARUKI MURAKAMI'S NEW NOVEL, <i>THE CITY AND ITS UNCERTAIN WALLS</i>, NOW*<br> <br> An assault on the senses, part murder mystery, part metaphysical speculation; a fable for our times as catchy as a rock song blasting from the window of a sports car.</b><br> <br> High-class call girls billed to Mastercard. A psychic 13-year-old dropout with a passion for Talking Heads. A hunky matinee idol doomed to play dentists and teachers. A one-armed beach-combing poet, an uptight hotel clerk and one very bemused narrator caught in the web of advanced capitalist mayhem.<br> <br> Combine this offbeat cast of characters with Murakami's idiosyncratic prose and out comes <i>Dance Dance Dance</i>.<br> <br> <b>'If Raymond Chandler had lived long enough to see</b> <b><i>Blade Runner</i></b><b>, he might have written something like</b> <b><i>Dance Dance Dance</i></b><b>' <i>Observer</i></b>
