In 1982 Tokyo, Aomame leaves a cab to avoid gridlock and finds herself in a brave new world, while Tengo labors to polish a manuscript a teenager has submitted to a literary contest. These two stories wind around each other and eventually conjoin in Murakami's shining magnum opus, which tells us everything we need to know about the world today. (LJ 9/15/11) (c) Copyright 2011.
