About this Item

First edition, first printing. SIGNED by Murakami to title-page. Likely to remain a rare copy. One of a small number of signed copies distributed to independent bookstores within the UK. A beautifully executed example of Murakami's valuable signature (all the more special for deviating from the usual bookplate or tipped-in editions), and signed in blue fountain pen ink. Very Fine (as new) in dust-wrapper. This is one of few copies complete with the exclusive, promotional postcard set that contains nine of Murakami's UK book covers, each showcasing the iconic designs by Suzanne Dean, Creative Director at Vintage. The postcard set is immaculate, and retains the wraparound band, as issued. The eight masterly stories in this new collection are all told in the first person by a classic Murakami narrator. Offered by D B WATERS RARE BOOKS: Professional, full-time booksellers of fine, select 1st editions, established in 1998. As befits a rare book, all dust-wrappers are housed within transparent, removable protectors. All our stock is fully guaranteed as authentic, a sample of which is presented here on this website. As long-established specialist sellers, we never stock any first edition that is devalued by serious flaws such as price-clipping, dedications, remainder dots, or owner markings, etc. A small, boutique business managed by David, a holder of a Masters degree in Modern Fiction from the UEA, and published author by Nightjar Press.
