Condición: UNSPECIFIED. Octavo, cloth-backed boards. First British edition, first printing with "1 3 5 7 9 10 8 6 4 2" on copyright page. "An unnamed but decidedly hard-boiled detective takes on a strange case involving a brilliant but naive elderly scientist, his beautiful, apparently mute granddaughter, some very strange technology, and what appear to be kappas, traditional Japanese monsters. In alternating chapters a different unnamed narrator visits a town at the end of the world, where things aren't what they seem and unicorns are common. This strange and surrealistic novel by a mainstream writer who occasionally strays into genre territory is heavily influenced by the cyberpunks." - Anatomy of Wonder (2004) II-792. The author's fourth novel and his second to be translated into English. Anatomy of Wonder (2004) II-792. A fine copy in fine dust jacket with £14.99 price printed on front flap. (#158572).
