Synopsis

Murakami Haruki is perhaps the best-known and most widely translated Japanese author of his generation. This title scrutinizes Murakami's fictional worlds and their extraliterary contexts through a range of discursive lenses: modernity and postmodernity, universalism and particularism, imperialism and nationalism, Orientalism and globalization.
