Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World by Haruki Murakami.

Summary from amazon: The last surviving victim of an experiment that implanted the subjects' heads with electrodes that decipher coded messages is the unnamed narrator of this excellent book by Murakami, one of Japan's best-selling novelists and winner of the prestigious Tanizaki prize. Half the chapters are set in Tokyo, where the narrator negotiates underground worlds populated by INKlings, dodges opponents of both sides of a raging high-tech infowar, and engages in an affair with a beautiful librarian with a gargantuan appetite. In alternating chapters he tries to reunite with his mind and his shadow, from which he has been severed by the grim, dark "replacement" consciousness implanted in him by a dotty neurophysiologist.

Genre: Speculative fiction, Science fiction

400 pages so might be too long?

Can't think of any particular trigger warnings.

I love Haruki Murakami books (read 2 so far) but they might be a bit long for a first book.

Oh, I love hard boiled wonderland. I also think it's one of his more approachable books (as in, more fantastic setting and less relationship heavy than most of his other books).

I'd love to do this one! It is a bit long so maybe like next months? It is a really good book (that I need to reread).

I love that book. It's so fucking weird, but so great.
