The City and Its Uncertain Walls

The City and Its Uncertain Walls

Haruki Murakami

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

'Truth is not found in fixed stillness, but in ceaseless change/movement. Isn't this the quintessential core of what stories are all about?' — Haruki Murakami, from the afterword to The City and Its Uncertain Walls. The long-awaited new novel from Haruki Murakami, his first in six years, revisits a Town his readers will remember, a place where a Dream Reader reviews dreams and where our shadows become untethered from our selves. A love story, a quest, an ode to books and to the libraries that house them, and a parable for these strange post-pandemic times, The City and Its Uncertain Walls is a singular and towering achievement by one of modern literature’s most important writers.
