Sputnik sweetheart by Murakami

I've raided my son and daughters bookshelves for their collection of Murakami books despite being warned that Norwegian Wood is the most normal and least weird of his books! I was attracted by the title Sputnik sweetheart so decided to read this next. Murakami has a very distinctive style of writing and this book also has the same themes of loneliness , deep, meaningful connections and the isolation of the human condition,but also focuses on the metaphysical  nature of reality and unreality.This book was also very moving .I found it less dark than Norwegian Wood
