    <![CDATA[This is a narrative particle accelerator that zooms between Wild Turkey Whiskey and Bob Dylan, unicorn skulls and voracious librarians, John Coltrane and Lord Jim. Science fiction, detective story and post modern manifesto all rolled into one rip-roaring novel, &quot;Hard-boiled Wonderland and the End of the World&quot; is the tour de force that expanced Haruki Murakami's international following, tracking one man's descent into the kafkaesque underworld farce, compassion and detachment, slang and philosophy. The result is a wildly inventive fantasy and a meditation on the many uses of the mind.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Wonderfully mysterious and at times bizarre, Murakami is a master of peeling back layer after layer to lead you down the meanderings of his wonderfully mysterious and at times bizarre imagination. Nothing is ever what it seems.]]></body>
