The first published translation was by Alfred Birnbaum. The American translation and its British adaptation, dubbed the "only official translations" (English) are by Jay Rubin and were first published in 1997. For this novel, Murakami received the Yomiuri Literary Award, which was awarded to him by one of his harshest former critics, Kenzaburō Ōe. == Publication history == The original Japanese edition was released in three parts, which make up the three "books" of the single volume English language version. # # # In English translation, two chapters were originally published in ''The New Yorker'' under the titles "The Zoo Attack" on July 31, 1995, and "Another Way to Die" on January 20, 1997. A slightly different version of the first chapter translated by Alfred Birnbaum was published in the collection ''The Elephant Vanishes'' under the title "The Wind-up Bird and Tuesday's Women". In addition, the character name Noboru Wataya appears in the short story "Family Affair" in ''The Elephant Vanishes''. While having a similar personality and background, the character is not related to the one in ''The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle'' of the same name. Noboru Wataya is also used in Jay Rubin's translation of the title short story in ''The Elephant Vanishes''. In May 2010, Harvill Secker published the Limited Centenary Edition of ''The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle'' to celebrate its one hundred years of publishing. It was limited to 2,500 copies.〔(The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle: Limited Centenary edition )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
