The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle written by Haruki Murakami performed by Rupert Degas on CD (Unabridged)

Toru Okada is going through a difficult time. He is without a job, his cat has disappeared and his wife is behaving strangely. Into this unbalanced world, come a variety of curious characters, a young girl sunbathing in a nearby garden, sisters who are very peculiar indeed, an old war veteran ...

... with a violent, disturbing story. Okada retreats to a deep well in a nearby house. And the story unfolds.
