Recently finished Babbitt by Sinclair Lewis, a satirical novel set in the Jazz Age which points a finger at the emptiness and hypocrisy underlying the American Dream. Really, really enjoyed it.
Currently about 150 pages into The Corrections by Jonathan Franzen and I love it so far.
With regards to Murakami, I gather it's considered somewhat lightweight in relation to some of his other work but I found South of the Border, West of the Sun very moving.
