Description
Um mundo aparentemente normal, duas personagens - Aomame, uma mulher independente, professora de artes marciais, e Tengo, professor de matemática - que não são o que aparentam e ambos se dão conta de ligeiros desajustamentos à sua volta, que os conduzirão fatalmente a um destino comum. Um universo romanesco dissecado com precisão orwelliana, em que se cruzam histórias inesquecíveis e personagens cativantes.
