*PRE-ORDER HARUKI MURAKAMI'S NEW NOVEL, THE CITY AND ITS UNCERTAIN WALLS, NOW*

Hear the Wind Sing is Murakami''s first novel, available for the first time in English outside Japan.

In Hear the Wind Sing the narrator is home from college on his summer break. He spends his time drinking beer and smoking in J's Bar with the Rat, listening to the radio, thinking about writing and the women he has slept with, and pursuing a relationship with a girl with nine fingers.

The story of the narrator, the Rat and J continues in Pinball, 1973.

Industry Reviews

Murakami fans will no doubt delight in this new publication. For newcomers, these early works are an excellent introduction to a writer who has since become one of the most influential novelists of his generation -- Hannah Beckerman * Observer *
Murakami's way of making emotionally resonant images and symbols bump around on the page, and in one's mind, remains fresh, miraculously, more than 35 years on -- Jerome Boyd Maunsell * Evening Standard *
Wind/Pinball is a fresh, heart-warming dose of the Japanese master * Economist *
quintessential Murakami... an excellent introduction to a writer who has since become one of the most influential novelists of his generation -- Guardian * Hannah Beckerman *
This two-for-the-price-of-one hardback really is something special... The decorative covers are exquisite, but it is the literature between them that cemented Murakami as one of the world's most celebrated writers -- Dan Lewis * Travel Guide *
