A mindbending new collection of short stories from the beloved internationally acclaimed
Haruki Murakami. The eight masterly stories in this new collection are all told in the first
person by a classic Murakami narrator. From nostalgic memories of youth meditations on music
and an ardent love of baseball to dreamlike scenarios and invented jazz albums together these
stories challenge the boundaries between our minds and the exterior world. Occasionally a
narrator who may or may not be Murakami himself is present. Is it memoir or fiction? The reader
decides. Philosophical and mysterious the stories in First Person Singular all touch
beautifully on love and solitude childhood and memory. . . all with a signature Murakami
twist.
