Finished reading THE WIND-UP BIRD CHRONICLE by Haruki Murakami on 2010-06-28.

I didn't like this at all. I was bored reading it. I hated the protagonist, his meandering narrative style, the deliberately "weird" touches throughout. I'm tired of Murakami's 30-something men struck by deep ennui. I hated the constant repetition of Noboru Wataya's full name.
