>>305 I read A Wild Sheep Chase and liked it. I started The Wind-Up Bird Chronicles but haven't gotten back to it because it's a bit much to follow along with all the studying I have to do. Right now I'm reading some of his short stories in a collection called The Elephant Vanishes. All good stuff.

I think I connect better with Murakami's work because I see some of myself in his protagonists. That probably isn't such a great thing.
