Takashi Miike's feature film Audition (1999) was based on one of his novels. Murakami reportedly liked it so much he gave Miike his bles -

LJ Pemberton is the author of Still Alive, which was longlisted for the 2025 Dublin Literary Award.

Publishers Weekly called Still Alive a “fresh and vivid debut.” This heady exploration of love and disillusionment in the contemporary age follows the misadventures of V as she contends with love, family dysfunction, and the “crummy job market of the aughts” in “aching prose.” Jason Christian, for Full Stop, said: “I keep thinking of Still Alive as a queer Fight Club (1996) for the millennial generation…If Fight Club touted moralistic dogma and material deprivation as a path to liberation, Still Alive laughs in the face of such naïve confidence in easy solutions.”
