Kafka Tamura runs away from home at fifteen, under the shadow of his
father's dark prophesy. The aging Nakata, tracker of lost cats, who
never recovered from a bizarre childhood affliction, finds his
pleasantly simplified life suddenly turned upside down. As their
parallel odysseys unravel, cats converse with people; fish tumble from
the sky; a ghost-like pimp deploys a Hegel-spouting girl of the night; a
forest harbours soldiers apparently un-aged since World War II.
There is a savage killing, but the identity of both victim and killer
is a riddle - one of many which combine to create an elegant and
dreamlike masterpiece.
