{"product_id":"book-ax0y","title":"After Dark","description":"A short, sleek novel of encounters set in Tokyo during the witching hours between midnight and dawn, and every bit as gripping as Haruki Murakami’s masterworks \u003ci\u003eThe Wind-Up Bird Chronicle\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eKafka on the Shore\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003eAt its center are two sisters–Eri, a fashion model slumbering her way into oblivion, and Mari, a young student soon led from solitary reading at an anonymous Denny’s toward people whose lives are radically alien to her own: a jazz trombonist who claims they’ve met before, a burly female “love hotel” manager and her maid staff, and a Chinese prostitute savagely brutalized by a businessman. \u003cbr\u003e   \u003ci\u003eAfter Dark\u003c\/i\u003e moves from mesmerizing drama to metaphysical speculation, interweaving time and space as well as memory and perspective into a seamless exploration of human agency. Murakami’s trademark humor, psychological insight, and grasp of spirit and morality are here distilled with an extraordinary, harmonious mastery.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49340844409136,"sku":"BDax0y","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/ax0y-Square-cover.jpg?v=1775747884","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-ax0y","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
