El joven pasa el tiempo en compañía de su mejor amigo, apodado el 'Rata', una chica con cuatro dedos en la mano izquierda y un barman. A estos personajes se suma la figura de un escritor (inventado): Derek Heartfield, con quien se abre y se cierra la obra. Pinball 1973 (1980) se desarrolla tres años después. Ese mismo joven vive ahora en Tokio, con dos gemelas idénticas, mientras el 'Rata' sigue viendo pasar la vida en el J.'s Bar."-- Hear the Wind Sing is the first novel by Haruki Murakami; it first appeared in the June 1979 issue of Gunzo, one of the most influential literary magazines in Japan.There’s not a whole lot to say story wise.
