Haruki Murakami a wild sheep chase

My first foray into Huraki Murakami's writing was The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle. After several stalled attempts, I finally relaxed enough to read the book in its entirety. Carried away on a wave of enthusiasm, I then tackled Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World and plunged into something I couldn't fathom. I was lost. As lost as the character in the book!

Murakami is one of the darlings of modern literature. Have you read any of his work - and if so, did you truly understand what he was on about?
