Picked up a copy of Dance,dance,dance a while back. Interesting book.

Oh good god, my opinion of Murakami has totally changed.

My first taste of his works was The Wind Up Bird Chronicle, and I thought, ....How in the world does anybody like this guy's writings?

I decided to give him a second try, and bought Kafka on the Shore.

Am now totally hooked. Recently bought Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman, and I must say, this is my favourite book from him. I love his short stories more than his novels, as he takes just a single theme, and weaves a story around it, compared to the long journeys in his novels. Still love his novels though.

Sigh. His themes of loneliness , and the discovery of "self" is are fantastic.

just got myself the hard boiled wonderland and the end of the world. now i have 4 of his books, more to come!

time to read.
