I was transformed and amazed.

After Dark is a real mind scramble.

Too right... do you think the Chinese mafia will catch that guy?

So many questions left unanswered... yet the dawn of the next day at the end of the book kind of symbolizes a new beginning, and all the strange events that happened in the night are forgotten.

Anybody want to give me a suggestion to which book of his I should read first?

I read Dance, dance, dance first, and i absolutely loved it.
Although, i didnt know it was a sequel to a wildsheep chase, but it didn't really make a difference.

YAY. Revival of a lost thread
Since my last visit on this thread. I blew major money on nearly all of his books

My collection now includes:

dance dance dance
The wild sheep chase
Norwegian wood
Blind willow sleeping woman
Kafka on the shore
After dark
Underground-true stories-

Norwegian wood and dance dance dance has got to be my favourites. It's so weird its good haha

I'm a major major fan and totally converted my family into fans as well, My aunt and my brother also read them =)

Shall take a photograph of them next time.

the only book i have read by Haruki Murakami was After Dark even though it was translated it was a really good book and i even managed to get myself lost in to the story so when i read After Dark before class people had to call on me three times before they got my response.

The Story was great and i also want to buy more of his books lucklily i saw a combined book whit some of his other stories in the local book store hopefully no ones bought it yet? ''~_~''!!!
