Norwegian WoodThis is the third novel I've read by Haruki Murakami and once again its excellent. Its all about growing up as a 19 year old in Japan in 1969 and focuses on 3 central character. This was his one of his early novels and was apparently a huge hit in Japan when it first came out.
The storyline in slow and meandering, but I love the way he writes: the gentle pace, the attention to detail, the characters, the feeling of being in Japan. Recommended.

Hi Tony, just happened upon your blog.Nice.So Rihanna's reigning in every household huh? And it totally suits the weather too. It rains cats and dogs here in Abuja.
Yep, I'm a Nigerian. Don't worry I'm not a fraudster. Most people are afraid of Nigerians-with good reason too.
Enjoy!
Hi Ejura, good to hear from you. Don't think I've had anyone from Nigeria visit my blog. Will check out yours too!
