La ragazza dello Sputnik

Murakami's use of magical realism adds a layer of mystery and depth—I'm curious whether these choices came from personal experiences or literary influences.

The detached tone really emphasizes feelings of loneliness and longing. I wonder if that was intentional to mirror the characters' inner worlds.

The cultural backdrop feels integral to the story, but I'm curious how much of the setting was inspired by Murakami's own experiences or Japan's societal nuances.
