Wild Sheep Chase PB

Quirky and utterly captivating, A Wild Sheep Chase is Murakami at his astounding best. An advertising executive receives a postcard from a friend and casually appropriates the image for an advertisement. What he doesn't realize is that included in the scene is a mutant sheep with a star on its back, and in using this photo he has unwittingly captured the attention of a man who offers a menacing ultimatum: Find the sheep or face dire consequences.  Thus begins a surreal and elaborate quest that takes listeners from Tokyo to the remote and snowy mountains of Northern Japan, where the unnamed protagonist has a surprising confrontation with his demons.
