Jap authors :marseykamikaze: :marseyjapanese: :marseyseppuku: recommendations thread

!bookworms I'm thinking about reading “Confessions of a Mask” by Yukio Mishima, what are your thoughts on him and other Japanese authors? Personally I've never read a book by any Jap author so far (Ishiguro was born in Nagasaki but he's pretty much an Englishman through and through and his best book The Remains of the Day is the quintessential portray of British character).

Haruki Murakami is one of my favorite authors, Magical realism so things can get weird.

I also just read no longer human, I thought it was interesting but didn't get an emotional response like a lot of people talk about.
