In 'The Elephant Vanishes', Haruki Murakami presents a collection of stories where the everyday intertwines with the fantastic. A man obsessed with the disappearance of an elephant from a zoo, a lawyer looking for his wife's cat, and a couple robbing a McDonald's are just some of the characters who await an unexpected turn in their lives. With prose that alternates between the unsettling and the hilarious, Murakami explores the ability to transform the triviality of our lives into something extraordinary.
