The City and Its Uncertain Walls
A Novel (Vintage International)
What's it about
Have you ever been haunted by a love you can't forget, a place you can't escape? Uncover a world where dreams and reality blur, and a walled city holds the key to a long-lost love, forcing you to question everything you thought you knew about memory and self. You'll follow a narrator drawn back to a mysterious, dreamlike city he first imagined with his teenage love. Inside its high walls, he must become a "dream reader" to find her, confronting shadows, unicorns, and the uncertain walls of his own heart in a classic Murakami tale.
