15歳の誕生日、少年は夜行バスに乗り、家を出た。一方、猫探しの老人・ナカタさんも、なにかに引き寄せられるように西へと向かう。暴力と喪失の影の谷を抜け、世界と世界が結びあわされるはずの場所を求めて。
Kafka on the Shore follows the fortunes of two remarkable characters. Kafka Tamura runs away from home at fifteen, under the shadow of his father’s dark prophecy. The ageing Nakata, tracker of lost cats, who never recovered from a bizarre childhood afflication, finds his simple life succenly turned upside down. Their parallel odysseys are enriched throughout by vivid accomplices and mesmerizing dramas. Cats converse apparently un-aged since WWⅡ. There is a savage killing, but the identity of both victim and killer is a riddle. At once a classic tale of quest, Kafka on the Shore is also a bold exploration of mythic and contemporary taboos, of patricide, of mother-love, of sister-love. Above all it is a bewitching and wildly inventive novel from a master stylist.
