Description: A collectable exclusive 1st edition of the latest release from acclaimed international best-selling Japanese author and writer Haruki Murakami. He is always mentioned when discussing potential Nobel Prize for Literature winners; hopefully he will achieve this one day. 'Novelist As A Vocation ' published by Harvill Secker, London on 8 November 2022, 1st edition/1st impression, standard modern hardback, (xii) + 212 pages. Translated from the Japanese (originally published in Japan in 2015) by Philip Gabriel and Ted Goossen. In fine unread condition. This is the exclusive signed Waterstones special edition of the book, with all edges of the text block having black sprayed edges and with a white stencil design to the fore-edge, and illustrated endpapers. Roundel sticker to the front panel of the dustjacket. A unique look into the mind and craft of a master storyteller. Haruki Murakami's myriad fans will be delighted by this unique look into the mind of a master storyteller. In this engaging book, the internationally best-selling author and famously reclusive writer shares with readers what he thinks about being a novelist; his thoughts on the role of the novel in our society; his own origins as a writer; and his musings on the sparks of creativity that inspire other writers, artists, and musicians. Readers who have long wondered where the mysterious novelist gets his ideas and what inspires his strangely surreal worlds will be fascinated by this highly personal look at the craft of writing.
