I more recently read "The broken map" or "missing Map" something like that about the private detective. Hard to follow. He's great at showing human relationships. Are the Murakami's more recent?
I also read "I am a Cat." But all the meaning and word play are missing when translated, so it seemed a waste of time unless read in Japanese.
