Moshi moshi. Are you a japanese? oh well.. let's get to the topic.
I've read "Norwegian Wood" as well as "Dance dance Dance" and "The elephant Vanishes". Hmm.. I suggest you read Norwegian Wood , though it have some sexual content in it.. the story is still okay. I think that is the most erotic novel of Murakami-san. "The elephant Vanishes" contain some short stories. I also suggest you read that.  I'm planning to buy "Sputnik Sweetheart" (I think that is the title) but can't find one here in the country.Anyways, that's it. Glad to find a Murakami fan here. Hope you could still read this one. Hehe. ja!
Hi there.
I've read some of his newly published short stories (not so new actually), which are pretty nice! Recommend: The kidney shaped stone that moves everyday, Where I'm likely to find it All these storied can be found in his book Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman (collection) And I'm reading the English version of Kafka on the Shore right now.
I havnt even heard of him... @_@ Ugh. Is he like, japanese or something? His name sounds like it. What kinda books does he write?
I read Kafka on the Shore. It's a bit too deep and philosophical for me. I think he was trying to use events in his stories to talk about life, but some parts don't make sense to me. Still, I like it because the writing style is beautiful and the story was quite mysterious and interesting.
And to answer chewy123's question, yes he is a Japanese author.
I've read "After the Quake" and I really enjoyed it! It was during my exams though so i wasn't concentrating as well as i could have been. I guess a lot is probably lost in translation from Japanese to English but i liked his tone and characterisation. Quite melancholy. I've bought "Hard Boiled Wonderland" and "The Edge of the World" but haven't started reading it yet. My dad was going to but my mum got it mixed up with the 120 Days of Sodom (which i was also reading at the time) so she told him not to touch it cos it's kinky *BLEEP*. Parents are awesome.

Haruki Murakami Novels Yes, he is Japaneze. He's most possibly, one of the greatest modern writer's. His stories don't fit in any kind of established genre, but if we were to have to it a name then it would have to be called, 'Surreal fiction.' I suggest you read his works; my first was "After Dark." If you begin reading his work I hope you enjoy it- have a good day. -reply by Travis
