A dazzling new collection of short stories--the first major new work of
fiction from the beloved, internationally acclaimed, Haruki Murakami since
his #1 best-selling Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage.
Across seven tales, Haruki Murakami brings his powers of observation to
bear on the lives of men who, in their own ways, find themselves alone.
Here are vanishing cats and smoky bars, lonely hearts and mysterious women,
baseball and the Beatles, woven together to tell stories that speak to us
all. Marked by the same wry humor that has defined his entire body of work,
in this collection Murakami has crafted another contemporary classic. From
the Hardcover edition.
