I have every English release by Haruki Murakami if you’d like to borrow any? If there is any time in your busy reading schedule, try some Best American Non-Required Reading and some Mc Sweeney’s (which I am also happy to lend you). With your interest in fine textiles, you may also enjoy A Life By Design – Siobhan O’Brien’s book about Florence Broadhurst(ditto). F Scott Fitzgerald’s Jazz Age Stories are worth reading too…

I also have Best American Science Writing 2007 and Best American Travel Writing 2006 if you’re interested.
