A pulsating psycho-thriller from Ryu Murakami, author of
In the Miso Soup A renaissance man for the
postmodern age, Ryu Murakami—a musician, filmmaker (Tokyo
Decadence), TV personality, and award-winning author—has
gained a cult following in the West. His first novel,
Almost Transparent Blue, won Japan’s most coveted
literary prize and sold over a million copies, and his most
recent psychosexual thriller, In the Miso Soup, gave
readers a further taste of his incredibly agile imagination.
In Piercing, Murakami, in his own unique style,
explores themes of child abuse and what happens to the
voiceless among us, weaving a disturbing, spare tale of two
people who find each other and then are forced into hurting
each other deeply because of the haunting specter of their
own abuse as children.
