Haruki Murakami


I recently started reading Haruki Murakami. I came across this author from my best friend's sister, when she decided to sell her old books as she has already bought a "kindle". I bought all her Murakami books. I have heard the author somewhere before, I just couldn't remember where... So far I'm halfway done with his Kafka on the Shore and so far, it's a good read. The story for me somehow started quite slow and easy. I like the fact that he used such subtleties in introducing his plot twists and concentrated on the scenes that he was building in every chapter. I guess that's the genius of it. It is quite amazing how he could put out so much social issues without it coming off as offensive. anyway.. that's it for now. :)
