About The City and Its Uncertain Walls by Haruki Murakami

A young man’s girlfriend disappears, leaving him heartbroken and intent on finding the imaginary town where he believes she has gone. His search stretches into middle age and leads him to a remote library, then to a shadowless city where unicorns roam and the woman he loves works in a dream library—but has no memory of their life together.

Part love story and quest, part reflection on books and the libraries that house them, The City and Its Uncertain Walls moves between the real world and an uncertain otherworld. Readers drawn to fantastical settings, literary questions about memory and change, and stories centered on libraries may find much to explore here.
