Vote for: Goodbye Tsugumi
Well, I've conceded and gone for Kafka on the Shore. I've read it before but I'm thinking I'd definitely like to read it again, though it isn't my favourite (but it's better than Norweigian Wood). Can't let the Mishima book win out. I watched a programme about Murakami a couple of weeks go, and Mishima's militarism was what Murakami's writing was very much against, pushing for a more liberal approach in Japan. Actually, Murakami is fascinating, and a pretty d*** good writer too! Interesting article here for anyone who's interested : http://books.guardian.co.uk/departme...957520,00.html
