That's actually right in line with some other things I'd heard: that the humor and something else, maybe story? Was as good as ever, but the prose or characterization was uneven for Murakami. I love short story collections, though, so I'll give those a shot even if I'm lukewarm on the book I already have.
Cheers for ibarw! I didn't know if anyone would actually follow the links; it's fun to see.
