Popular Hits of the Showa Era (Paperback)

Paperback. It's a set-up like a video game: two rival gangs fight to death for the control of a Tokyo district. In one gang, six young losers committed only to drinking, voyeurism and karaoke singing, in the other six tough independent older women. From ambush to revenge, both groups are gradually decimated until the ultimate showdown. In Murakami's inimitably brutal and brilliant style, Popular Hits dissects the gender and generational conflicts of contemporary society in a hilarious satire. A wickedly satirical and wildly funny tale of an intergenerational battle of the sexes. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
