A Wild Sheep Chase

Haruki Murakami''s third novel, A Wild Sheep Chase is the mystery hybrid which completes the odyssey begun in Hear the Wind Sing and Pinball, 1973 . The man was leading an aimless life, time passing, one big blank. His girlfriend has perfectly formed ears, ears with the power to bewitch, marvels of creation. The man receives a letter from a friend, enclosing a seemingly innocent photograph of sheep, and a request: place the photograph somewhere it will be seen. Then, one September afternoon, the phone rings, and the adventure begins. Welcome to the wild sheep chase. ''A science fiction fantasy, a romance, a metaphysical tease, or a dramatisation of philosophical ideas'' Independent ''A highly accomplished piece of craftsmanship'' New Yorker WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY THE AUTHOR
