Product Description


  • Subject Matter: In his most significant, heavyweight work of journalistic non-fiction, Murakami spent months conducting deep, empathetic interviews with both the survivors and perpetrators of the tragic 1995 sarin gas attack on the Tokyo subway system by the Aum Shinrikyo cult.

  • Narrative Approach: Shifting away from his signature surrealist fiction, the narrative focuses entirely on giving voice to ordinary citizens whose morning commutes turned into living nightmares.

  • Thematic Depth: By compiling these raw, unvarnished human testimonies, the text delivers a profound, disturbing evaluation of modern Japanese societal compliance, the dangerous mechanics of spiritual manipulation, and psychological trauma.

  • Ideal For: This work is essential reading for those interested in narrative non-fiction, social psychology, and the human cost of extremist ideology.

  • Product Format: Published as a standard edition paperback spanning 320 pages, this physical book presents its powerful testimonies in an accessible and respectful format.
