«Men Without Women: Stories» is Haruki Murakami's collection of short stories published by Vintage in paperback (240 pages, in English).
Seven stories about men facing loneliness and the absence of a woman: doctors, students, ex-boyfriends, actors and waiters. Everyday reality crosses paths with the enigmatic: missing cats, smoky bars, mysterious women, baseball and the Beatles. Ironic humour and pathos run through the collection.
Edition from the Vintage International series, translated from the Japanese by Philip Gabriel and Ted Goossen and published in 2018. Includes the story 'Drive My Car'.
Suitable for readers of literary fiction and contemporary short stories, especially those seeking Murakami's brief narrative.
