This is volume (6) of Ryu Murakami's selected works, now out of print, featuring popular stories. Includes the acclaimed trilogy: "Ecstasy," "Melancholia," and "Thanatos." The spine is yellowed, and the obi (sleeve) has scratches and scuffs, so it is listed as "slightly damaged or with some wear," but there are no stains, marks, or writing in the text. Purchased at the Kinokuniya Shinjuku Main Store at the time of publication and unread, it has been stored on a bookshelf.
