Who is Japan's most popular novelist in the United States?

Sorry for writing an essay wrong. So who is Japan's most popular novelist in the United States? I would like the list novelists as possible, because I want to get much information. And I want to know, how much Japanese novels are often read between the average person in the United States?

I have no opinion on why this may be, but I have worked in a bookstore in four years and less than a foreign author Oprah is adopted usually are not best-sellers. The most popular Japanese novelist I've come across recently is Haruki Murakami. We do often sell "The -Up Bird Chronicles of the Wind "and his latest book has sold decently. Other japanese authors in translation include Yukio Mishima, Yasunari Kawabata, Shusaku Endo, Natsuo Kirino (also sell decently), and Hitomi Kanehara.
