I've just read a library copy of this novel and there are no transfer stickers in the front of the book. I assume staff removed them as I was the first to have it issued. It didn't detract from my enjoyment of the novel not knowing that stickers were missing! If you haven't read it the ending is a surprise - I'll leave it at that.
Have a good weekend

Subject: Murakami's "Colourless Tsukuru Tazaki"
Bit of a Friday afternoon one for you all...
Has anyone decided what to do about the transfer stickers in the front of the new Murakami?
We appreciate that they probably form an integral part of the novel's aesthetic, but experience suggests that they're going to disappear fairly promptly anyway, if we leave them in.
It's Friday afternoon, so I can't decide. Any thoughts?
(I suppose, at least I know what I'm going to be reading this weekend, if nothing else then to try and find out whether the story references them...)
Thanks,
Tim

What are you reading? I'm getting a different perspective on events 100 years ago with 'Mapping the First World War' by Peter Chasseaud - borrowed from North Lincs Libraries.
