Hmmm, I pretty much went on a Japanese lit binge a while back, and authors like Ryu Murakami, Natsuo Kirino, and Saikaku Ihara are among my favs. Murakami has a lot of darker sexuality in it, but isn't really for the tame of heart, fair warning.

Ryotaro Shiba is good a non-fiction fiction author, too. He doesn't make history a chore to read. The Japanese classics like The Tale of Genji and Musashi are always good read, although trying at some times, haha!

Lately, I been reading some Sci-fi...well...mainly Samuel Delany. I've read They Fly at Ciron and Stars in My Pocket Like Grains of Sand, and I find his use of personalized writing style as tool for depth fun.
