The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle: A Novel Audiobook (Free)

The Wind-Up Parrot Chronicle is a tour de force-and one of Haruki Murakami’s most acclaimed and beloved novels.

In a Tokyo suburb, a man named Toru Okada looks for his wife’s missing cat-and after that for his wife as well-in a netherworld under the city’s placid surface. As these queries intersect, he encounters a bizarre group of allies and antagonists. Gripping, prophetic, and suffused with humor and menace, this is an astonishingly imaginative detective story, an account of a disintegrating relationship, and an excavation of the buried secrets from Japan’s forgotten advertising campaign in Manchuria during Globe War II.
