I would travel in the world of the book "Sputnik Sweetheart" by Haruki Murakami. Magical realism and mystery psychology captivated me during the reading. In this fictional world I would be an old and forgotten friend of K from Europe. K will invite me to help him when he decides to look for Sumire in Greece after she has broken contact with all her acquaintances. Traveling through Greece to find out where Sumire is, we will discuss in our way the evasive nature of the girl, her rebellious character, the beauty of her difficult behavior, Sumire's strange way of loving someone. Of course, I will give K new perspectives to clarify why Sumire ignores him and does not want their relationship to move forward. In the end, when Sumire responds to K and when the three of us meet, I will try to establish a relationship with Sumire to give the book a new vision in describing this intriguing character and an alternative characterization of the Sumire personality at the end of book.
