After watching the anime, I just wanted to read the novels for a better
understanding of characters and of course, it had to be in Japanese language
since I am learning it.

I tried searching for it, but couldn't find. Instead, I found those in
translated version.

Can anyone please tell me where I can find it?

Where can I find Durarara!! Vol 1 novel in Japanese language?


If you want to purchase the Japanese version of a light novel volume, manga
volume, or anime disc that was released relatively recently, Amazon Japan is
almost sure to have what you're looking for.

Since you know at least some Japanese, you can just search the site for it.
Unless you want to use a proxy-shipping service, you will want to find
products that ship internationally, which you can do by filtering your search
down to "AmazonGlobal対象" products. Upon doing so, you will find that a print
version is available
[here](https://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%83%87%E3%83%A5%E3%83%A9%E3%83%A9%E3%83%A9-%E9%9B%BB%E6%92%83%E6%96%87%E5%BA%AB-%E3%81%AA-9-7-%E6%88%90%E7%94%B0%E8%89%AF%E6%82%9F/dp/404866848X/),
and also that a Kindle version is available
[here](https://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%83%87%E3%83%A5%E3%83%A9%E3%83%A9%E3%83%A9-%E9%9B%BB%E6%92%83%E6%96%87%E5%BA%AB-%E6%88%90%E7%94%B0-%E8%89%AF%E6%82%9F-ebook/dp/B00O4QK3IU),
which may be cheaper overall. (But note that I've had issues with Kindle
purchases from Amazon Japan - the various country-specific versions of Amazon
don't share information about your Kindle purchases with each other, which
seems to cause problems with some Kindle devices/apps.)

Depending on what country you live in, there may be other options that are
cheaper, more convenient, or both. For example, if you reside in the US,
Kinokuniya USA will ship basically any anime-related thing to you (more
convenient), but charges a fairly hefty markup for it (not cheaper).

_Durarara!!_ and most other light novels are generally unlikely to be found
for free from any legitimate vendor, though occasionally the publishers will
upload the first chapter or two online for free as a sampler.
