You've not heard of
Haruki Murakami?
(I realize he hasn't won. But there's a strong possibility that he might.)
I highly recommend this gentle introduction to his work:
"The Elephant Vanishes: Stories"
You'll find it right here:
http://www.amazon.com/Elephant-Vanis...aruki+murakami
A description from Amazon:
1) A man sees his favorite elephant vanish into thin air.
2) A newlywed couple suffers attacks of hunger that drive them to hold up a McDonald's in the middle of the night.
3) A young woman discovers that she has become irresistible to a little green monster who burrows up through her backyard.
And there's more!
