Reading because the Ghost Road won the Booker prize and because Pat Barker is from Thornaby-on-Tees so just across the river from me. This was an enjoyable read. Hoping for a bit more from the next one.
I have now read all of Murakami's novels. This one is based on a novel he wrote early in his career which he was never satisfied with and hence never published.
