Here are must-reads for Murakami lovers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDown the road from a working-class British pub, along the brick wall of a narrow alley, if the conditions are exactly right, you’ll find the entrance to Slade House. A stranger will greet you by name and invite you inside. At first, you won’t want to leave. Later, you’ll find that you can’t. Every nine years, the house’s residents — an odd brother and sister — extend a unique invitation to someone who’s different or lonely: a precocious teenager, a recently divorced policeman, a shy college student. But what really goes on inside Slade House? For those who find out, it’s already too late...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGhostwritten. A gallery attendant at the Hermitage. A young jazz buff in Tokyo. A crooked British lawyer in Hong Kong. A disc jockey in Manhattan. A physicist in Ireland. An elderly woman running a tea shack in rural China. A cult-controlled terrorist in Okinawa. A musician in London. A transmigrating spirit in Mongolia. What is the common thread of coincidence or destiny that connects the lives of these nine souls in nine far-flung countries, stretching across the globe from east to west? What pattern do their linked fates form through time and space?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eConsists of: Slade House (Well Read), Ghostwritten (Well Read)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thryft Singapore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39466544005201,"sku":"","price":18.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0110\/0598\/4849\/products\/aug-2021-bookbundle-3.jpg?v=1717775759","url":"https:\/\/thryft.asia\/products\/aug-2021-bookbundle-3","provider":"Thryft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
