Haruki Murakami. First U.K. edition, first printing. Both jacket and hardcover in Fine condition. London: Harvill Secker, 2011. No writing or markings in this like new edition, 364 pp. This is book three in the trilogy.
First printing in English of this hypnotically addictive novel, a work of startling originality and, as the title suggests, a mind-bending ode to Orwell's 1984. (The number 9 in Japanese is pronounced like the letter Q.) A wonderful collector's copy by one of the world's acknowledged truly great writers: a literary phenomenon of our time.
