... and maybe by the time you get the 50 posts, we can convince you to vote for Norwegian Wood :p
I think I can safely say that anything by Murakami is going to be worth a read. :)
ooh, i am a huge fan of Banana. You guys should read hers stories. If you are a person thinking about the inside life , spirit... , you should read Kitchen , N.P, and her short stories.
I am not advertising her novels but really i am in love with her writings. I dont know much about the others JApanese writer ^ ^ (oh, i know Haruki Murakami ). So, you guys , i think if you are to know sth cool about one of the writers here, feel free to post ^ ^. We can have posts review some features of these Jap writers , right?

Has night voted yet???
Nope.
Have you voted yet? :D
Come on peeps..Norwegian Wood only has three more votes to win!
Hmm.. wonder if a sub chat could be started for those who wanted to read this?
I'm waiting to see where my vote will count the most.Quote:

(Forgive my newbie questions!)
Of course you can take part in the discussion! :DQuote:

Vote for Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami. It's supposed to be such an interesting book. :)
Discussions are open to everyone; having said that, if you manage to gather 50 posts before the end of the month, you can still vote.Quote:

I second that! I've read both Norweigian Wood and Kafka on the Shore and both are good, but Kafka on the Shore is better ;)Quote:

Has anyone read Dance, dance, dance by Murakami?
