The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle

Haruki Murakami · Alfred A. Knopf (New York) · 1997

No significant English book-club edition. The absolute true first is the Japanese three-volume edition (1994-1995). Among English printings, the stated 'First American Edition' plus the presence of the numeral 1 in Knopf's number line distinguishes the Knopf first from later Knopf printings and from the 1998 UK Harvill issue.
