recommend authors similar to Haruki Murakami?

Recommendations!

I usually read nonfiction but my brother gave me Haruki Murakami’s ‘Kafka on the shore’ and I’m hooked.

Has anyone here read it? Can you recommend authors similar to Haruki Murakami?

Thanks!

I LOVE Murakami but have found authors similar but never quite as good as he is. I would recommend just reading more of his works. Wind Up Bird Chronicle is probably his best. I really liked HardBoiled Wonderland and the End of the World.

Kafka on the Shore is a great “gateway” to Murakami – probably his most accessible work.

No – consider yourself lucky that you have all his works to look forward to! Seriously, so good.
