Advanced excerpt of the first edition of Murakami's heroically imaginative novel, which is at once a detective story, an account of a disintegrating marriage, and an excavation of the buried secrets of World War II. Octavo, original illustrated wrappers. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author in the year of publication on the title page, "To Stephen, Haruki Murakami 10/19/97" and additionally signed three times by the jacket illustrator Chip Kidd; once on the front panel, on the title page and on the back panel. In fine condition. Cover design by Chip Kidd. Translated from the Japanese by Jay Rubin. A unique example.
"A beguiling sense of mystery suffuses The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle and draws us irresistibly and ever deeper into the phantasmagoria of pain and memory. . . . Compelling [and] convincing" (Los Angeles Times Book Review).
