I confused him with Ryū Murakami, another novelist but very different style.

  Ryu Murakami is the better one of the two. Haruki s books make it easy to fall asleep.

    interesting you say that because I found Ryu unbearably boring and bland. Maybe it was poor english translation but I couldn't make it past the first hundred pages of Almost Transparent Blue.

      I haven't read all of Ryu's novels so I cannot comment on all of his work. I have tried to read several of Murakami's novels and stopped half way because I found it way too boring. I guess it's just not for me. I can't fathom why he is so popular, honestly.
