- martijn_himself 11y agoDefinitely try 'The Wind-up Bird Chronicle', I think it is regarded as one of his best works although it is a bit slower paced. For me 'Kafka on the Shore' contained a bit too many magical events that were then left unexplained and unexplored- but I didn't think it was bad at all. The other novel I really liked was the 1Q84 trilogy.
