«Azul casi transparente» is Ryu Murakami's first novel, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (144 pages, in Spanish).
A group of young people living near a US military base in Japan give themselves over to rock, drugs and sex with no apparent passion or pleasure, drifting towards self-destruction. Murakami portrays them with an anti-sentimental distance and a technique close to cinéma-vérité, with a surreal touch and no moral condemnation.
Compactos collection, no. 148, translated by Jorge García Berlanga. Original title: «Kagirinaku tomei ni chikai buru» (1976). Winner of the Akutagawa Prize.
A work of contemporary Japanese fiction for readers seeking raw stories about youth and alienation, without moralising.
