I have been pretty disappointed in Murakami re: his writing of women in the two books I read. :( Sad, because I enjoy him for the most part otherwise. One I've read is called A Wild Sheep Chase and I liked it SO much, but




(spoilers?)










the main character's love interest has subtle psychic powers and loses them, and the main character is told by someone I took as in a position to know, that he'd lose all interest in her without those. It put me off pretty badly.
