Audition by Ryū Murakami

Audition

One of the most chilling and unforgettable psychological horror novels ever written — by Ryū Murakami, Japan's master of dark and transgressive fiction. A story that begins as a quiet romance and transforms, with terrifying inevitability, into something deeply disturbing.

About the Book

• Aoyama, a widower and film producer, stages a fake audition to find a new wife — selecting the beautiful, quiet, and seemingly perfect Asami from among the candidates

• But Asami is hiding something — and as Aoyama digs deeper, the story darkens with mounting dread and horrifying revelation
• A masterfully paced novel that lulls the reader into false security before delivering one of the most shocking and iconic endings in modern Japanese fiction
• A searing exploration of male desire, obsession, misogyny, and the violence that can lurk beneath the surface of idealized love
