Wind/Pinball: Two novels

NATIONAL BESTSELLER

In the spring of 1978, a young Haruki Murakami sat down at his kitchen table and began to write. The result: two remarkable short novelsâ€”Hear the Wind SingÂ andÂ Pinball, 1973â€”that launched the career of one of the most acclaimed authors of our time.

These powerful, at times surreal, works about two young men coming of ageâ€”the unnamed narrator and his friend the Ratâ€”are stories of loneliness, obsession, and eroticism. They bear all the hallmarks of Murakamiâ€™s later books, and form the first two-thirds, withÂ A Wild Sheep Chase, of theÂ trilogy of the Rat.Â

Widely available in English for the first time ever, newly translated, and featuring a new introduction by Murakami himself,Â Wind/PinballÂ gives us a fascinating insight into a great writerâ€™s beginnings.
