Dr. Strecher specializes in Japanese literature and culture, and has been a fan of Haruki Murakami since he started publishing in Japan. This book of literature criticism can sometimes be slow for non-lit crit readers because of all the theoretical underpinnings which are explored in order to get to the meat of Murakami's writing.
