Oe introduces Kogito Choko, a writer in his early sixties, as he rekindles a childhood friendship with his estranged brother-in-law, the renowned filmmaker Goro Hanawa. Goro sends Kogito a trunk of tapes he has recorded of reflections about their friendship, but as Kogito is listening one night, he hears something odd. "I'm going to head over to the Other Side now," Goro says, and then Kogito hears a loud thud. After a moment of silence, Goro's voice continues: "But don't worry, I'm not going to stop communicating with you." Moments later, Kogito's wife rushes in; Goro has jumped to his death. With that, Kogito begins a far-ranging search to understand what drove his brother-in-law to suicide. His quest takes him from the forests of southern Japan to the washed-out streets of Berlin, where Kogito confronts the ghosts from his own past and that of his lifelong, but departed, friend.

主编说，要珍惜，詹周氏快90岁了，我可能会是最后一个见到她的媒体人。这算激励还是抚慰？没任何意义。我估计连主编自己都不知道为什么采访她，无非是在哪里翻档案，看到了民国三大奇案，发现这三个案子，百十来号人，好像就詹周氏还活着。盯着民国时期的影印照她突发奇想，如果这周末把我派过去，拍一张她90岁的样子，彩色数码的，贴在她30岁的黑白照片旁边，一定很有趣。可是这对我很无趣，上海到大丰农场来回600公里，主编只批我500块经费，况且两地不通火车，早上一班从人民广场出发的大巴，晃悠到下午才到，晚上就要从那边再折回来。
