I don't know if this is a commonly known issue, but I've been going through Murakami's short stories, and the printing for Men Without Women is bizarre. You have to practically break the spine open because the inner margins are non-existent, while the outer margins are absurdly thick. I looked at the preview on Amazon for the US paperback (it seems there's a new cover you can see in the preview) which looked pretty bad, but once I compared it against the preview for the UK paperback on Amazon UK, the offset became painful.

For people with a US copy, have you noticed this? For people with the UK copy, have you noticed this?

I've loved the stories I've read so far, but this is a pretty big detriment to the process of reading. It's insane because there's so much blank space, and it's not a problem in any of the other UK books. Did I get a weird copy, or was the typesetter having a bad day?
