A beautiful new edition of F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel The Great Gatsby to coincide with the release of Baz Luhrmann's film. 'There was music from my neighbour's house through the summer nights. In his blue gardens men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and the champagne and the stars.' Everybody who is anybody is seen at the glittering parties held in millionaire Jay Gatsby's mansion in West Egg, east of New York. The riotous throng congregates in his sumptuous garden, coolly debating Gatsby's origins and mysterious past. None of the frivolous socialites understands him and among various rumours is the conviction that 'he killed a man'. A detached onlooker, Gatsby is oblivious to the speculation he creates, but always seems to be watching and waiting, though no one knows what for. As writer Nick Carraway is drawn into this decadent orbit, Gatsby's destructive dreams and passions are revealed, leading to disturbing and tragic consequences.

The long awaited revision of a classic text by an expert author team.

Over 35 år etter utgivelsen er Haruki Murakamis to første romaner nå tilgjengelig på norsk for første gang, samlet i ett bind og med et nyskrevet forord av forfatteren. I tiden rundt og etter studiene tilbringer den navnløse fortelleren og vennen hans Rotta tiden på Jay's Bar i hjembyen. De drikker øl, hører låter på jukeboksen og snakker om litteraturen, livet og om jenter. Noen år senere jobber fortelleren som oversetter og bor sammen med to identiske tvillinger som brått har flyttet inn. Han hjemsøkes av minnet om et tidligere forhold og om et helt spesielt flipperspill som ikke vil slippe taket. Allerede i disse fascinerende debutbøkene møter vi mange av de temaene Murakami er blitt så kjent for, som ensomhet, oppvekst og studentliv, men også jazz, amerikansk litteratur, matlaging og ung kjærlighet. Bøkene kombinerer det velkjente nære og underfundig murakamiske med en frisk og fri og ungdommelig holdning til livet og skrivingen. Hør vinden synge og Flipperspill, 1973 utgjør første og andre del av den såkalte «Serien om Rotta», som ble avsluttet med Sauejakten og Dans dans dans. Dette er obligatorisk lesning for alle Murakami-lesere og tilhengere av nyskapende, moderne litteratur.

Selv om boken levendegjør rettssalsscener, handler den om mer enn en opprivende rettssak. Den forteller om familiekjærlighet og personlig stolthet, den forteller om hvor langt en mann er villig til å gå for å beskytte det viktigste av alt ... uten å ane at han er en brikke i et større og hardere spill. Da statsadvokat Mark Blackwell tilslutt må oppgi rettssalens velregisserte konfrontasjon og våge seg ut i en farligere personlig strid, er det bare ett spørsmål som opptar ham: Kan han redde sønnen - og seg selv - på den måten?
