Hi Bleaker, thanks for connecting with me. Sun Tzu's The Art of War can arguably be considered Japanese literature :-) since the Japanese were the ones who promoted the book most, perhaps even more than the Chinese. Good to meet you. Sincerely, Thomas

Thanks for the suggestions on the thread in Japanese Lit. I wonder what I would think of Wind-Up Bird if I reread it. Then I wonder how I could even think of rereading it when I have so many other books on deck! I think if/when I re-read a Murakami, the first re-read will be Wind-Up or Dancex3.
