Siete intensas historias sobre el desamor y la compleja relación entre hombres y mujeres. En su obra más reciente, Haruki Murakami ofrece a los lectores siete relatos en torno al aislamiento y la soledad que preceden o siguen a la relación amorosa: hombres que han perdido a una mujer, o cuya relación ha estado marcada por el desencuentro, asisten inermes al regreso de los fantasmas del pasado, viven el enamoramiento como una enfermedad letal, son incapaces de establecer una comunicación plena con la pareja, o ven extrañamente interrumpida su historia de amor.

Story
Un nuovo anno sta per concludersi e Asle, un anziano pittore rimasto vedovo, ripensa alla sua storia. L'uomo vive da solo sulla costa norvegese, i suoi unici amici sono il suo vicino, Åsleik, un contadino-pescatore scapolo, e Beyer, un gallerista che vive in città, a un paio d'ore di auto. Lì vive anche un altro Asle, artista anch'egli, solitario e consumato dall'alcool. Asle e Asle sono due versioni della stessa persona, due racconti della stessa vita, che si interrogano sull'esistenza, la morte, l'ombra e la luce, la fede e la disperazione. Dall’autore Premio Nobel per la Letteratura 2023.

Story
It’s the tabloid sensation of the year: two well-known footballers standing in the dock, charged with sexual assault, a series of vile text messages pointing towards their guilt. As the trial unfolds, Evan Keogh reflects on the events that have led him to this moment. Since leaving his island home, his life has been a lie on many levels. He’s a talented footballer who wanted to be an artist. A gay man in a sport that rejects diversity. A defendant whose knowledge of what took place on that fateful night threatens more than just his freedom or career.
