RE: Prostitutes, Miners, Wild Sheep Chases & Burmese Death Camps: Three of My Favourite Authors

I read the title of this post and - for a brief moment - thought you were referring to other people's posts, mine included ( as I wrote about escaping sheep in my last two posts ) haha
I myself wouldn't know where to start. I have read and still am reading so very much that I forgot the names of many writers that I loved. Murakami would definitely be high on my list though. I'm gonna add some other titles that you mentioned to my reading list. The work of Richard Flanagan sounds very interesting.

Oh I have missed your sheepish posts (haha) ... Flanagan is great.
I forgot to mention that my grandfather ( mom's dad ), who lived from 1914-1996, was a prisoner of the Japanese and worked on the Burma railway. He hardly ever talked about this time in his life and, unfortunately, I was only 14 when he passed away and not really interested in history ( yet ).
Did I ever tell you my mom lived in Australia from her third till her eight or so ( 1958 to 62, I believe )? My grandmother had a Super 8 camera at the time and I have color footage of my mom as a little girl in Australia.
