Dance Dance Dance--a follow-up to A Wild Sheep Chase--is a tense, mesmerizing, and often hilarious ride through Murakami's vividly rendered Japan, a place where everything that is not up for sale is up for grabs. As Haruki Murakami's nameless protagonist searches for a mysteriously vanished girlfriend, he is plunged into a wind tunnel of sexual violence and metaphysical dread. In this propulsive novel, the narrator navigates a series of chilling encounters: a stay at the enigmatic Dolphin Hotel, which is altogether different to his earlier memory of it; the return of the shabby but oracular Sheep Man; and the narrator's chaotic search for Kiki, a long-ago girlfriend who has disappeared. In these pages, one of the most idiosyncratically brilliant writers at work today fuses together science fiction, the hardboiled thriller, and white-hot satire.
