		<description><![CDATA[Many readers who express an interest in Japanese literature are already familiar with Natsuo Kirino&#8217;s fascinating work. Her recent novel, Real World, reads like a social study carefully disguised as crime fiction. The crime itself, a murder, slowly makes its way out of the picture, revealing other dangers, and rushing the story forward like a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So, apparently President Obama is reading Netherland. This is great news for Joseph O’Neill, the novel&#8217;s author. Netherland, just out in paperback, was long-listed for the Man Booker Prize and, much to my surprise, cut from the short list.  It was also one of the New York Times 10 Best Books of 2008.
