It was about a Jazz club owner and his former lover. Bought it because of a picture of tenor sax on the cover. Didn't thrill me, but I finished it.
He has cult status in Russia of all places. When I was in Moscow this past winter they had a sizeable section devoted to him in the House of Books [a huge book store]; it was teeming with women, browsing Murakami's new books.
I am a huge fan of Akutagawa Ryunosuke, the daddy of all modern Japanese writers. There were certain introspective parallels between Murakami and him, but nothing that would scream overt plagiarism.
