Description
A love story, a quest, an ode to books and to the libraries that house them, The City and Its Uncertain Walls is a parable for these strange times.
STEP INTO THE CITY. . .
When a young man’s girlfriend mysteriously vanishes, he sets his heart on finding the imaginary city where her true self lives. His search will lead him to take a job in a remote library with mysteries of its own.
When he finally makes it to the walled city, a shadowless place of horned beasts and willow trees, he finds his beloved working in a different library – a dream library. But she has no memory of their life together in the other world and, as the lines between reality and fantasy start to blur, he must decide what he’s willing to lose.
A love story, a quest, an ode to books and to the libraries that house them, The City and Its Uncertain Walls is a parable for these strange times.
This is a fantastic opportunity to become the owner of this wonderful deluxe edition of Murakami’s long-awaited novel from November 2024. It is signed by the author and numbered 68/80 (as shown on the title page and on the decorated packaging carton). This very special edition also comes with a custom sewn notebook decorated with connecting egg shapes, mirroring the egg-shaped cut-out in the perspex case.
