About this product
Product Information
Part romance, part detective story, Sputnik Sweetheart tells the story of a tangled triangle of uniquely unrequited love. K is madly in love with his best friend, Sumire, but her devotion to a writerly life precludes her from any personal commitments. At least, that is, until she meets an older woman to whom she finds herself irresistibly drawn. When Sumire disappears from an island off the coast of Greece, K is solicited to join the search party--and finds himself drawn back into her world and beset by ominous visions. Subtle and haunting, Sputnik Sweetheart is a profound meditation on human longing.

Reviews
"Grabs you from its opening lines. . . . [Murakami's] never written anything more openly emotional." Los Angeles Magazine "Murakami is a genius." Chicago Tribune "Murakami has an unmatched gift for turning psychological metaphors into uncanny narratives." The New York Times Book Review "An agonizing, sweet story about the power and the pain of love. . . . Immensely deepened by perfect little images that leave much to be filled in by the reader's heart or eye." The Baltimore Sun "[Murakami belongs] in the topmost rank of writers of international stature." Newsday "Murakami's true achievement lies in the humor and vision he brings to even the most despairing moments."

Some of these came in cracked.
I don’t exactly blame the seller because it seems like she did a good job packing. Most likely they were cracked in transit from getting manhandled enroute.
