SINOPSE
Shortlisted For The International Booker Prize 2025
An inventive and immersive speculative novel about a future in which humans are nearing extinction - from the bestselling author of Strange Weather in Tokyo
In the distant future, humans are on the verge of extinction and have settled in small tribes across the planet under the observation and care of the Mothers. Some children are made in factories, from cells of rabbits and dolphins; some live by getting nutrients from water and light, like plants. The survival of the race depends on the interbreeding of these and other alien beings - but it is far from certain that connection, love, reproduction, and evolution will persist among the inhabitants of this faltering new world.
Unfolding over geological eons, Under the Eye of the Big Bird is at once an astonishing vision of the end of our species as we know it and a meditation on the qualities that, for better and worse, make us human.
Under the Eye of the Big Bird was shortlisted for the International Booker Prize 2025, announced on April 8 2025.

SOBRE O AUTOR
Hiromi Kawakami
Hiromi Kawakami nasceu em Tóquio, em 1958. Dedicou-se ao ensino até à publicação do seu primeiro livro de contos, Kamisama, que lhe granjeou o Prémio Pascal. Em 1996, conquistou o Prémio Akutagawa por Hebi wo fumu (Hebi ou Fumu), e, em 2000, o prémio Ito Sei e o Woman Writer’s por Oboreru (Abandonar-se à Paixão). Um ano mais tarde, ganhou o prestigiado Prémio Tanizaki pelo romance Sensei no kaban (O Céu é Azul, a Terra, Branca), posteriormente galardoado com o Man Asian Literary Prize e adaptado ao cinema. Seguiram-se Algo que Brilha como o Mar, O Senhor Nakano e as Mulheres, Manazuru, Vidas Frágeis, Noites Escuras e Os Amores do Senhor Nishino. Do seu currículo constam ainda os prémios Yomuiri (Suisei), Izumi Kyoka (Okina tori ni sarawaranai yo) e MEXT Art Encouragement. As suas obras, que incluem ficção (contos e romances), não-ficção e poesia, foram traduzidas em mais de 15 línguas. É uma das escritoras contemporâneas populares do Japão.
