Haruki Murakami’s latest novel
I just got the email newsletter saying that Kafka on the Shore: A Novel just hit the Harvard Book Store, and I am quite excited. I *loved* Norwegian Wood (it made me think of Banana Yoshimoto, who I also love), even though I found The Wind-Up Bird Chronicles a bit too dense and morose for me to even finish. (Nancy Pearl says that sometimes, you just need to go back and revisit a book at a different time in your life to be able to read it, so Wind-up Bird Chronicles is on that list.)
Since the book store has it, I checked to see if my library system has it yet, and it does, I just need to get it ILL. Yay!
[Note: I meant to post this on 21 jan '05, but the Random House site was down, so I couldn't get the links to the books. I decided to hold the post until I could get the links, because I'm a big believer in linking to the publisher, or directly to the author, if I can. I'm weird that way.]
