And, I bet, his one novel is not sufficient enough to satisfy a reader looking for more. "Kafka on the Shore" is undoubtedly one of the finest novels that I have come across in recent times.

This strikingly beautiful novel leaves an ever-lasting feeling of longing for people whom we lost or whom we can never ever forget. (less)
