MURAKAMI Aiiii! Murakami has been my favorite writer for the last couple of years. I strongly encourage folks to read any/all of his books. 'South of the Border, West of the Sun' was written a while back, but recently released (re-released). His most recent *writing* effort, I believe, is called 'The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle' and it's not only fabulous but has gotten some critical acclaim as well. (Not to mention that I caught a Murakami reference in that 'Bed of Pipes' song by the Rescuers...) I could go on and on, but I won't. PAJAMAS Anyway - his stories are very fun, sexy, and clever. Nice bedtime reading for a Sinisterine pajama party... So where were we having that again? ;) senor droolcup [ with a little more dare than truth ] At 06:07 PM 7/28/99 +0100, poetryplace2 wrote:
THE BIG SHEEP This month I have mostly been reading the Japanese novelist Haruki Murakami. If you go to Waterstones at the moment you can get a big discount on his new book �South of The Border, West of The Sun� which is very B&S-friendly, all about falling in love with a young girl with a wonky leg and listening to scratchy old records. All his other books are fantastic too. Actually, I had a gander through the archives, and it seems that people were telling you all this ages ago, but I had never heard of him before, which goes to show how much attention I pay.
