<p>« Je fus assailli par un doute: qu''est-ce que je pouvais bien faire là? »La vie du narrateur, jeune cadre publicitaire à Tokyo, n''a rien d''exceptionnel. Jusqu''au jour où, pour avoir utilisé une photographie où figure un mouton d''une espèce rare, il est approché par une puissante organisation d''extrême droite. Le voici contraint de retrouver l''animal - doué, il est vrai, de pouvoirs extraordinaires. Comme toujours chez Murakami, le réel repose sur des fondations délicieusement instables...«Haruki Murakami est l''une des voix les plus irrésistiblement originales de la littérature d''aujourd''hui. » - The New Statesman</p>

TAKASHI MURAKAMI'S SUPER FLAT COLLECTION

<p>En los veinticuatro relatos que componen este volumen, Murakami introduce elementos fantasticos y oniricos, mezcla con calculada ambigüedad el sueño y la vigilia, se sirve de referentes como el jazz o permite que los cuervos hablen, pero, sobre todo, crea personajes inolvidables, enfrentados al dolor o al amor, o vulnerables y necesitados de afecto. Basta un detalle nimio para que algunos de esos personajes se suman en la melancolia tras atisbar de pronto el lado oscuro que ocultan los actos cotidianos. Unos, como el protagonista de «El septimo hombre», intentan superar, muchos años despues, la perdida de su mejor amigo, acaecida en la infancia; otros sienten el impulso de pasear por el zoologico los dias de fuerte viento. Preparar la comida puede ser la excusa perfecta para desentenderse de los problemas ajenos, como en «El año de los espaguetis», pero a veces la realidad se impone, como en «Hanalei Bay», donde una madre acude a recoger el cadaver de su hijo surfista tras morir atacado por un tiburon. En «Viajero por azar» la casualidad propicia la reconciliacion entre un hermano y una hermana, enemistados durante diez años, y en «El espejo», un vigilante nocturno narra su terrorifica experiencia con un fantasma. / From the bestselling author of Kafka on the Shore and The Wind-up Bird Chronicles comes this superb collection of twenty-four stories that generously expresses Murakamis mastery of the form. From the surreal to the mundane, these stories exhibit his ability to transform the full range of human experience in ways that are instructive, surprising, and relentlessly entertaining. Here are animated crows, a criminal monkey, and an iceman, as well as the dreams that shape us and the things we might wish for. Whether during a chance reunion in Italy, a romantic exile in Greece, a holiday in Hawaii, or in the grip of everyday life, Murakamis characters confront grievous loss, or sexuality, or the glow of a firefly, or the impossible distances between those who ought to be closest of all.</p>
