"I was informed of her death over the phone by an old friend..."

So begins "The Hunt for Sheep" - perhaps the strangest journey through the corners of the modern world and human consciousness, invented by the legend of modern literature, the Japanese writer Haruki Murakami. This novel has become an absolute world bestseller: the "sheep hunt" in our souls will never end.

So, call the police, ask for the address and phone number of the family, then call the family and find out the date and time of the funeral. And then, on the appointed day, take the commuter train from Waseda Station. And hope the hunt will be successful....

So what is a sheep?

"I don't know myself," Murakami smiles after the publication of The Hunt. - But I'm sure it was the main reason for the book's success.

How can a peaceful accident from a quiet ordinary life throw a person into completely foreign lands? A photo in an advertising brochure with views of Hokkaido led the hero to a fateful decision.
