My goodness, A Shingawa Monkey completely sucked me in. I can't wait to read the other story. Thanks.

Oops, Shinagawa.

If you haven't yet read any Banana Yoshimoto, her work, particularly Amrita, is reminiscent of Murakami's, beyond simply their shared Japaneseness.

Once again, rockin' it with the posts about Japan. Interesting stuff, matteo. Thanks.

Yeah, me too, I liked it a lot.

And thanks for the reminder of Banana Yoshimoto, Hugh, I need to re-read her stuff!
