A marvelous hybrid of mythology and mystery, A Wild Sheep Chase is the extraordinary literary thriller that launched Haruki Murakami’s international reputation.
It begins simply enough: A twenty-something advertising executive receives a postcard from a friend, and casually appropriates the image for an insurance company’s advertisement. What he doesn’t realise is that included in the pastoral scene is a mutant sheep with a star on its back, and in using this photo he has unwittingly captured the attention of a man in black who offers a menacing ultimatum: find the sheep or face dire consequences. Thus begins a surreal and elaborate quest that takes our hero from the urban haunts of Tokyo to the remote and snowy mountains of northern Japan, where he confronts not only the mythological sheep, but the confines of tradition and the demons deep within himself. Quirky and utterly captivating, A Wild Sheep Chase is Murakami at his astounding best.
Một sự kết hợp tuyệt vời giữa thần thoại và bí ẩn, A Wild Sheep Chase là tác phẩm kinh dị văn học phi thường đã đưa Haruki Murakami lên tầm quốc tế.
Câu chuyện bắt đầu khá đơn giản: Một giám đốc quảng cáo ngoài hai mươi tuổi nhận được một tấm bưu thiếp từ một người bạn và vô tình sử dụng hình ảnh đó cho quảng cáo của một công ty bảo hiểm. Điều anh ta không nhận ra là có một con cừu đột biến có ngôi sao trên lưng trong cảnh đồng quê, và khi sử dụng bức ảnh này, anh ta vô tình thu hút sự chú ý của một người đàn ông mặc đồ đen đưa ra tối hậu thư đe dọa: tìm con cừu hoặc phải đối mặt với hậu quả thảm khốc. Từ đó bắt đầu một cuộc hành trình siêu thực và phức tạp đưa người anh hùng của chúng ta từ những nơi ẩn náu ở thành thị Tokyo đến những ngọn núi xa xôi và phủ đầy tuyết ở miền bắc Nhật Bản, nơi anh ta không chỉ đối mặt với những con cừu trong thần thoại mà còn cả những giới hạn của truyền thống và những con quỷ sâu thẳm bên trong chính mình. Kỳ quặc và hoàn toàn quyến rũ, A Wild Sheep Chase chính là tác phẩm tuyệt vời nhất của Murakami.
