‘What you see with your eyes is not necessarily real’ A lavishly illustrated edition of Murakami’s classic short story.

A lavishly illustrated edition of Murakami’s classic short story.

Katagiri found a giant frog waiting for him in his apartment. It was powerfully built, standing over six feet tall on its hind legs. A skinny little man no more than five foot three, Katagiri was overwhelmed by the frog's imposing bulk.

‘Call me “Frog,”’ said the frog in a clear, strong voice
.

Fully illustrated and beautifully designed, this special edition of Murakami’s celebrated short story sees the bewildered Katagiri find meaning in his humdrum life through joining forces with Frog in an effort to save Tokyo from an existential threat.
