Sputnik Sweetheart – Murakami’s Yuri (?) Fiction

Last week I picked up a book (Norwegian Wood) by Murakami and read it. Then I remembered that many years ago I had read Murakami’s most beloved work, “Sputnik Sweetheart”, a mysterious novel about two girls who fell in love with each other. and a man who is both a narrator and an observer of the stories of the two girls

.

The story of the book is about Sumire, a strange woman who acts like her uncle character. (In our sense) crazy writing novels and talking like characters in classic novels all the time. but falls in love with a business woman who is 17 years older than her But I can’t tell you how I feel and is only a friend who observes the whole story

.

In the beginning it was a typical life story. But in the second half I can tell that if I don’t read it, I can’t keep up with it. Many mysteries about Sumire and Miu have been revealed since. How do you know each other? How do you fall in love? how was the past Until Kei’s feelings for Sumire despite knowing that Sumire loved Miu with all her heart ((I want to spoil it so much. But this story is too many puzzles. If I told you first, it wouldn’t be fun. Haha. Because while reading, there are a lot of questions in my head. What is it? How? Wow, that’s awesome. How did you think? I was totally confused when I read that this is true or just a fantasy of the characters))

.

If compared to other Yuri novels I must say that this story is different. It’s full of puzzles to explore. The story of two women who know each other. Strange things that the two of them encountered Confusing stories about dreams or reality

.

Until now, this is still Murakami’s book. that we like the most anyway With mystery, complexity mixed with a Murakami atmosphere that cannot be found in other people’s writings. Make this book the most charming. Make no matter how many years have passed How much have you read other people’s writings? This book is still the first book that comes to mind anyway.

.

**Spoiler: The ending is very overdue. But in the backlog there is perfection in itself.. Who thought this story should have to end? Let’s share. :)
