Science fiction, detective story & post-modern manifesto all rolled into one rip-roaring novel, Hard-boiled Wonderland & the End of the World is the tour de force that expanded Haruki Murakami`s international following. Tracking one man`s descent into the Kafkaesque underworld of contemporary Tokyo, Murakami unites East & West, tragedy & farce, compassion & detachment, slang & philosophy. The result is a wildly inventive fantasy & a meditation on the many uses of the mind. ...

This Hardangervidda National Tourist Route Map belongs to a series of 18 map & postcards sets describing popular tourist routes all over Norway. The map set

Includes:: a map in 1: 50, 000 presenting an accurate topography (based on the Norwegian topographic survey) which describes local footpaths, cycle or ski routes, sport & recreational facilities, places of interest, places to stay & eat, viewpoints. Hardangervidda National Tourist Route is a 67-kilometre-long stretch of road between Eidfjord in the county of Hordaland in Fjord Norway & Haugastøl in the county of Buskerud in Eastern Norway. The Måbødalen Valley & Vøringsfossen Waterfall have been a tourist magnet since tourism`s infancy, & their lure remains strong. The weather up on the plateau is shifting & varied, the kind of weather the Norwegian mountains are famous for. The Hardangervidda National Park is also an important habitat for Europe`s largest herd of wild reindeer. If you intend to cross the plateau in the winter season, the rough weatherconditions will sometimes require you to drive in a long column headed by a snow-clearing vehicle. There might also be a chance that the road is closed in short periods during winter. There is one panoramic view & rest area along the Hardangervidda National Tourist Route: the Vøringsfossen Waterfall, where the water thunders down a 145-metre sheer drop. Like the tourist icon Trollstigen, Vøringsfossen Waterfall is one of Norway`s best-known tourist destinations. The set
