Hear the Wind Song. Pinball 1973

During a baseball game, Haruki Murakami suddenly realized that he could write a book. Thus was born the novel «Hear the Wind Song», and later — «Pinball 1973». These works became a prologue to the global bestseller «A Wild Sheep Chase».

«During the summer of 1970, Krys and I drank 25 meters of beer and covered the floor of the "Jays Bar" with a five-centimeter layer of peanut shells. If we hadn't done that, we simply wouldn't have survived; it was such a boring summer».

Behind the facade of boredom lurk ghosts: a vanished classmate, a deceased lover, and a strange girl from the record store.

In «Pinball 1973», reality becomes increasingly thin. The hero begins living with mysterious twins and becomes obsessed with finding an old arcade machine called «Rocket». He must undergo a surreal quest to find a way out of the labyrinth of memory.
