Brenda's review
After Dark
by Haruki Murakami
oooohhh good to know. i'm a big fan of murakami, and at the library yesterday, i almost picked this one up, and then i was caught in a wave of nostalgia over michael chabon, and nabbed "the yiddish policeman's union" instead. http://www.goodreads.com/book/...
I'm a big fan of Michael Chabon, too! And I love the idea of that book. So creative. I will read it soon, too.

If you have not read anything by Haruki Murakami, I highly recommend that you do so. Just not this book. If you're just going to pick one or two books by him to read then read The Wind-up Bird Chronicle and Kafka on the Shore. They are probably his most "difficult" novels. If you want something a bit lighter, try Norwegian Wood or South of the Border West of the Sun. I still have a few of his left to read, but based on what I've read so far those are my recommendations. After Dark is just not on par with those others. I was disappointed.
