Murakami unsettles me as an author. I find that I never know what is going to happen when I read a book. I either become completely enraptured (Norwegian Wood) satisfactorily bemused (Hard Boiled Wonderland and the edge of the world) or unable to finish the book (The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle). I do love his descriptive style but sometimes it all gets a bit too odd for one.

That's interesting. I read in one of the Guardian articles while I was looking for that review, that everyone who reades Norwegian Wood loves it. Your experience seems to agree. Maybe I should try that one next.
