      A collection that features such stories as: When a man's favourite elephant vanishes, the balance of his whole life is subtly upset; a couple's midnight hunger pangs drive them to hold up a McDonald's; a woman finds she is irresistible to a small green monster that burrows through her front garden; and, more.

      *PRE-ORDER HARUKI MURAKAMI’S NEW NOVEL, THE CITY AND ITS UNCERTAIN WALLS, NOW*

      A dizzying short story collection that displays Murakami''s genius for uncovering the surreal in the everyday, the extraordinary within the ordinary


      *Featuring the story ‘Barn Burning’, the inspiration behind the Palme d’Or nominated film Burning*

      When a man''s favourite elephant vanishes, the balance of his whole life is subtly upset. A couple''s midnight hunger pangs drive them to hold up a McDonald''s. A woman finds she is irresistible to a small green monster that burrows through her front garden. An insomniac wife wakes up in a twilight world of semi-consciousness in which anything seems possible - even death.

      In every one of these stories Murakami makes a determined assault on the normal.
