About This Book
Ryu Murakami, along with Haruki Murakami (no relation), is one of the
best-selling writers in Japan and a major figure in contemporary popular
culture. Since publishing his first work, Almost Transparent Blue, which won
Japan's most coveted literary prize in 1976, Ryu has produced a steady stream of
novels, stories, and essays that consistently astound and delight readers with
their wild flights of imagination, irreverent humor, and brilliant, convincing
portraits of some of the quirkiest characters in Japanese literature.
69 is a roman a clef about coming of age during a time that left its mark on
baby boomers around the world--a time when we really believed we could change
the world before it changed us. By turns hilarious, cynical, frivolous, and
poignant, the book is infused from start to finish with Ryu's relentless energy
and optimism; it simply refuses to get tedious, preachy, or "literary" for a
single moment.
The book is composed of the following: "Arthur Rimbaud," "Iron Butterfly," "Lady
Jane," "Daniel Cohn-Bendit," "Claudia Cardinale," "Power to the Imagination,"
"Just Like a Woman," "Alain Delon," "Lyndon Johnson," "Cheap Thrills," "Amore
Romantico," "Wes Montgomery," "Led Zeppelin," "April Come She Will," "Velvet
Underground," and "It's a Beautiful Day."
Availability: Usually ships in 5~10 business days.
