Now a Major Motion Picture starring Andrew Scott, Paul Mescal, Claire Foy, and Jamie Bell. A man is drawn back to his childhood home and discovers his parents living just as they were on the day they died thirty years before... Screenwriter Harada is disconnected from the world. Lonely and jaded, he's drifted apart from his son and is dismissive when approached with gestures of friendship, including from a lonely and mysterious tenant who lives in his mostly empty apartment building. One night, when Harada returns to the dilapidated downtown district of Tokyo where he grew up, he meets a man who looks exactly like his long-dead father. And so begins Harada's ordeal, thrust into a reality where his parents appear to be alive at the exact age they had been when they died many years earlier. Deeply felt, searching, and profound, All of Us Strangers is a beautiful meditation on loss and the connection between familial love and romantic love.

Ein Leben wie jedes andere. Eine Liebe wie keine zweite Taura ist 48 Jahre alt und lebt in Tokio. Von seiner Frau hat er sich entfremdet, und auch mit seinen nahezu erwachsenen Kindern verbindet ihn wenig. Er erwartet nicht mehr viel vom Leben, doch dann kommt es eines Tages zu einem folgenschweren Ereignis: Taura wird wegen eines Beinbruchs in ein Krankenhaus eingeliefert und lernt dort Mutsuko kennen – eine Frau, die gleich einem Dämon von ihm Besitz ergreifen wird. Denn nicht nur, dass er sich haltlos in sie verliebt und in einen Strudel erotischen Begehrens gerät – er muss die ebenso bestürzende wie unerklärliche Feststellung machen, dass seine mysteriöse Geliebte von Treffen zu Treffen jünger wird. Ist er das Opfer seiner eigenen Sinne, die ihn täuschen, und im Begriff, wahnsinnig zu werden? Oder ist er einer Psychopathin erlegen, die ein grausames Spiel mit ihm spielt? Für alle Leser von Natsuo Kirino und Haruki Murakami.
