I am currently reading Kafka on the Shore. This is my first Haruki Murakami book. I picked it up while travelling in Frankfurt as I got bored at night. The book is weird, and I'm not sure if I fully understand it the full context of it.

Picked up John Le Carre A Perfect Spy from my local library. The inter play between characters/narrator first and third voice threw me off in the early chapters. Sticking through it paid off. I am enjoying it now.

Murakami never ceases to impress me. It is always a weird and stranger events in his books. Hope you'll give a second chance.

not yet, I saw and will read after the book you recommended.

It's hard to wrap around my head at this point on humanitarian and what he is saying. I have been reading another book on the good side of capitalism and my personal experience shapes a lot on how I view circumstances.

Will comment when I am done reading.
