Mishima: Spring Snow
Seems rich and vibrant so far but also as if he has set the pacing to be geared towards an epic tetralogy rather than the plot standing on its own feet right now.

McCarthy: Blood Meridian
Confession time, No Country is the only other one of his I have read. The prose is gorgeous if indulgent with a perfect dialogue, description action balance - perfectly immersive.

Dazai, Christmas Time
Truly interesting narrator and a fantastic sense of setting. The level of personality come typical Japanese coldness in his prose is actually pretty comparable to Murakami.

Why didn't you rate the last thing you read? Do you think the rules should apply to everyone but you?
