MEN WITHOUT WOMEN - Haruki Murakami
A cosmetic surgeon is faced with love, and its imperfections, for the first time. A veteran actor finds himself beholden to his female chauffeur. A recently-divorced salesman opens a jazz bar as memories of an ex-lover riff and swell.
Across these seven tales Haruki Murakami brings his wry humour and quiet sense of the surreal to bear on the lives of men who, in their own ways, find themselves alone in the world.
The Vintage cover designs for Murakami consistently use a circle icon. The design for Men without Women slices the circle to convey the title. It also playfully allows the positioning of the word MEN on both semi-circles.
Men without Women is published by Vintage in paperback today.
