Just ordered both from Otaku.com for about $35 shipped. If anyone's a fan of Murakami, these are must-haves.

Thanks -- I've been a big fan of his work since Wind-up Bird Chronicles.

My partner has loaned me his short story collection-'After the Quake', but I haven't read it yet-looking forward to it though.

I have most of Murakami, but I can't get this one. First of all, the hardcover goes for exorbitant prices used (even really used), and also the translation has actually omitted chapters from the original. Maybe they'll re-translate it and I'll get it then.
I also can't find a good copy for a decent price of his first short story collection, The Elephant Vanishes, which also commands high prices. Also, Norwegian Wood has never been published in hardcover as far as I can surmise, which is unfortunate.

I real "Pinball, 1973" online, and I don't really like it a lot. The funny part is there is one girl called Naoko that commits suicide o.O (another one)
