The English Translation of Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki Out Next Fall?

The Publishers Weekly posted an article on international bestsellers in 2013. Apparently Tsukuru Tazaki is at the top of the Spanish list. The article mentions that the English translation of the novel will be released by Knopf in the fall of 2014. This is the first mention of the English translation's release date more concrete than "2014."



International Bestsellers: November 2013: New Titles Rule The Lists





Newcomers to the international bestseller lists locked down the top spots in several markets in October. Haruki Murakami’s much anticipated novel Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage, the author’s first since 1Q84, hit #1 on Spain’s fiction list (Knopf will publish a translation in the U.S. in fall 2014). Anna Gavalda led the French list with her new novel Billie, which tells the story of a man and a woman who try to hit the restart button on their relationship.
