Second novel by contemporary classic David Mitchell, two-time Booker Prize finalist for Dream #9 and Cloud Atlas (recently made into a movie by Tom Tykwer and the Wachowskis). Twenty-year-old Eiji Miyake arrives from his tiny island in Tokyo with one obsession: to find a father he has never seen in his life. Eiji's everyday life is subtly mixed with fantasies and dreams, he leafs through the diaries of a torpedo man, meets a ruthless yakuza, John Lennon and the god of thunder. Either simple bad luck, or the invisible hand of fate leads Eiji from misfortune to misfortune, from work in the lost and found office to the sidelines of the exclusive Queen of Spades club, from involuntary participation in mafia showdowns to first love ...
“A dizzying mix of thriller, tragedy, fairy tale, video games and a portrait of today's turbulent Japan. Worthy candidate for Booker (Guardian).
The translation is published in a new edition.
