<b>NATIONAL BESTSELLER <p/><i>Wind/Pinball, </i>a unique two-in-one volume, includes, on one side, Murakami's first novel<i> Hear the Wind Sing</i>. When you flip the book over, you can read his second novel, <i>Pinball, 1973</i>. Each book has its own stunning cover.</b> <p/>In the spring of 1978, a young Haruki Murakami sat down at his kitchen table and began to write. The result: two remarkable short novels--<i>Hear the Wind Sing</i> and <i>Pinball, 1973</i>--that launched the career of one of the most acclaimed authors of our time. <p/> These powerful, at times surreal, works about two young men coming of age--the unnamed narrator and his friend the Rat--are stories of loneliness, obsession, and eroticism. They bear all the hallmarks of Murakami's later books, and form the first two-thirds, with <i>A Wild Sheep Chase</i>, of the trilogy of the Rat. <p/> Widely available in English for the first time ever, newly translated, and featuring a new introduction by Murakami himself, <i>Wind/Pinball</i> gives us a fascinating insight into a great writer's beginnings.
