The eight stories in this new book are all told in the first person by a classic Murakami narrator. From memories of youth, meditations on music, and 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 may or may not be Murakami himself. Is it a 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.
