I may be a Moron, but I'm not illiterate

There's a cool article here about one of my favorite authors, Haruki Murakami. If you enjoy reading, I'd recommend picking up some of his stuff. A lot of his stuff is a bit strange, with spirits, people with unusual abilities, and parallel worlds. If you don't mind that sort of thing, I'd recommend The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle or the more recent Kafka on the Shore. If you like things a little more straightforward, try Norwegian Wood, which is one of the better love stories I've ever read.
