this is a great thread; I love this type of stuff and several posts in here have turned me on to some new authors I wasn't previously familiar with. I'm curious what you folks think of haruki murakami: does he fit into this category? any authors who haven't already been mentioned who have a similar vibe?

anilEhilated posted:Not sure if it's a measure of postmodernalousnessity buy I feel he keeps writing the same book over and over. i have heard that said, yeah. i'm reading my first book by him ("Hard-boiled Detective and The End of the World") and enjoying it quite a bit. from talking to friends who have read several of his other books but not this one, i think it's possible that this book may be the odd one out, as it doesn't seem to match the themes they've described, but i won't be able to say for sure until i experience the other books myself or someone who's read them all can give their opinion here.

A human heart posted:Every murakami book is about the cool japanese man protagonist listening to albert ayler records, drinking cutty sark and having a sexy teen want to gently caress him. this described the chapters i read last night *to a t* so i think you're on to something here
