Murakami in Bookmarks Magazine

There is a feature article on Haruki Murakami in the latest issue of the bimonthly magazine Bookmarks. The web site is here, www.bookmarksmagazine.com, but there is not much there in less one signs up as a for fee subscriber. Fortunately my local library subscribes to the traditional delivery method.

Those already familiar with Murakami my find nothing in the article of that great an interest, but for an emerging fan like myself (Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman short story collection was my first read at the end of last year) the approximately one page biography and one to two page summary and review of all his books available in translation was interesting.

^Thanks for the link.

I discovered Murakami last year and read The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle and Sputnick Sweetheart. I might get to another one this year after I finish my alphabet and decade reading challenge. Probably Norwegian Wood or Hard Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World.

According to Wikipedia, the English version of The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle is missing two chapters and has a third chapter out of order. Does anyone know where a complete and accurate English version can be found?
