re: Asian Author As to Kazuo Ishiguro, he was born in Japan, and moved to England when he was six, so I guess he can be classified as either Japanese or English. I find his book "A Pale View of Hills" to be distinctly Japanese, very much like Yukio Mishima. Nilambe 13 years ago
re: Asian Author I have White Tiger on my to be read pile; I am glad to hear you enjoyed it. Other Indian writers I like are Kiran Desai and Amitav Ghosh. And one my favorite books ever is Arundhati Roy's "The God of Small Things." For contemporary Japanese writers I like Kazuo Ishiguro and Haruki Murakami. They live in England and the US, but still have a distinctive Asian style. For an older Japanese writer, Yukio Mishima's series will really give you a taste of earlier 1900's Japan, and the imperialistic thinking of that time. Ha Jin has some great and deceptively simple books set in China. Nilambe 13 years ago
