From the award-winning film director and New York Times bestselling author of If Cats Disappeared from the World, a surreal novelization of his hit film Exit 8, adapting the indie horror game of the same name.
A path with no beginning, no end.
A man with a life-changing decision to make finds himself trapped in a seemingly infinite corridor in a Tokyo subway station. Each time he passes through the sterile, quiet hallway, he discovers himself back at its beginning, walking past the same doors, the same posters, and disturbingly, the same people, as he did the previous time. He soon discovers that in order to reach the elusive "Exit 8", he must look more closely at his surroundings, and notice the tunnel's bizarre anomalies.
Spot one, and he must turn back. Spot none, and he can proceed.
Make it to eight, and he'll be free. Make a mistake, and he must start over again.
As he stumbles through an endless loop of conformity, confronting the strange, new possibilities of his own life, he begins to wonder if anomalies are not things to be feared but to be embraced. Maybe, he thinks, the only way out is through.

"Am I an Anomaly...?"
Do not overlook any anomalies. If you find an anomaly, turn back immediately. If you do not find any anomalies, do not turn back. Go out through Exit 8. Simple Rules, Simple Game. Can’t be too hard, right? But can you truly tell anomaly from normalcy? What even IS normalcy in a place like this? Maybe you are here for a reason, but be careful: Maybe YOU become an anomaly. Literary horror based on a film, based on a game: A slightly mind-bending origin story to a mind-bending novella. Simple, but yet complex in its themes, it makes for a short and chilling read -

short, unsettling, good
An entertaining novella that makes for a very smooth read thanks to its fast-paced and at times absurd plot. I found the recurring structure—in which events repeat themselves in an endless loop—particularly interesting.
