Oh, the ungodly hours of the night: After Dark is a typical Murakami book that blurs the line between reality and dreams, bringing together a trombone player and a college student in a 24-hour Denny’s. But three a.m. calls for adventures uncalled for, and the two find themselves solving a crime involving a Chinese prostitute, a Chinese mafia, and a no-nonsense businessman.
If this sounds like the book for your lazy day at home, you’re in for a surreal ride.
