==Plot==<br />
Yuichi Arisu slaves away in a cold, geometrical office everyday, in a humdrum job,<br />
somewhere in the huge, impersonal city of Tokyo. Every night he commutes home to his<br />
distant wife, and buries himself in the mystery novels of Jo Kuroda, a writer who has<br />
conjured up a strange alternative universe called the Darkland.<br />
<br />
Then, one night, Arisu’s wife disappears. The following day he falls asleep on the train on his way home and wakes in a siding to find Jo Kuroda sitting opposite him. The writer persuades Arisu to tell his own story. So begins a second story about events that took place two years ago in a snow-bound town in the far north of Japan. There, in the eerie, crumbling Starfish Hotel Arisu begins an affair with a young woman called Kayoko.<br />
