First edition of this “hypnotically eerie, sometimes even funny, but most of all, it’s [a book] that keeps ratcheting up the suspense”(The New York Times). Octavo, original half cloth. Signed and stamped by Haruki Murakami and additionally signed three times by jacket designer Chip Kidd, on the front panel, below Murakami’s signature and the rear jacket flap. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Chip Kidd. Translated from the Japanese by Jay Rubin.
"After Dark is a streamlined, hushed ensemble piece. . . . Standing above the common gloom, Murakami detects phosphorescence everywhere, but chiefly in the auras around people, which glow brightest at night and when combined" (The New York Times Book Review).
