Murakami is a great author. One of his most famous pieces is A Slow Boat to China, which is definitely worth a read. It's not too long, and touches on very interesting social themes resulting from Japan's rapid post-war industrialization and the failure of the 1960's anti-ANPO student protests / riots.
