Summary of the novel: David Mitchell’s second novel, number9dream, uses a similar episodic format to his brilliant debut Ghostwritten to create a coherent and assured narrative that is part yakusa thriller, part coming-of-age story. Eiji Miyake, 20, naïve and wholly loveable, encounters a frantic, exotic world when he comes to Tokyo from his small island home to find the father he has never met.
