by Haruki Murakami (Author)

El origen del mito Murakami: las dos primeras novelas del célebre autor japonés, en un solo volumen.

Después de darle muchas vueltas, Haruki Murakami atendió a las peticiones de sus lectores y accedió a que se tradujeran al español estas dos obras tempranas, sólo publicadas en japonés e inglés, al tiempo que añadió un prólogo donde relata su génesis.

Escucha la canción del viento (1979), ópera prima del autor, sigue las vicisitudes de un joven estudiante que, durante unas vacaciones en su ciudad natal, disfruta la compañía de su mejor y original amigo, apodado ""el Rata"", una chica con cuatro dedos y el barman del Jay s Bar, personajes a los que se suma la figura de un escritor suicida (e inventado): Derek Hearfield, con quien se abre y se cierra la obra.

Tres años después, en Pinball 1973 (1980), ese mismo joven vive en Tokio, con dos gemelas idénticas, mientras ""eL Rata sigue viendo pasar la vida en el Jay s Bar, en una novela melancólica (con gatos, pozos y antiguas novias) y de atmósfera poética, que contiene las mejores escenas de pinball de la historia de la literatura.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

National Bestseller

Wind/Pinball, a unique two-in-one volume, includes, on one side, Murakami's first novel Hear the Wind Sing. When you flip the book over, you can read his second novel, Pinball, 1973. Each book has its own stunning cover.

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 that launched the career of one of the most acclaimed authors of our time.

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 A Wild Sheep Chase, of the trilogy of the Rat.

Wind/Pinball gives us a fascinating insight into a great writer's beginnings.
