Reading Izumi Suzuki's stories, you can tell that she was troubled. The stories shift time and place with little notice, characters are apathetic unless they are experiencing too much. The entire thing feels like a drug trip (not bad, just confusing. As if the story were happening at you and not alongside you).
Unfortunately, a number of the music and pop culture references went over my head; if you have better knowledge than I on that front, and can appreciate a cut-and-paste storytelling style, her works might just be right for you.
