Murakami does have the protagonist problem that a lot of authors have (How often is the protagonist a literature professor at a prestigious university considering adultery?), but his the things that happen around said character are pretty different. I haven't disliked anything I've read by him, and I thought that The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle was fantastic.

I just finished Wind-Up Bird recently, too, and I adored it. Something about the way he describes the blandness of everyday life in the context of these incredibly surreal circumstances really pulled me in.
