​ I've heard a lot of talk about Murakami, but I couldn't bring myself to read it. I fell in love with his style a few years ago, when I found the book "In the night" at the library.
 Last year, taking a Sunday walk, I found 3 of his volumes at a flea market: Murakami for 50 cents!

Today we will talk about "My Love, Sputnik" or "Les amants du Spoutnik" - the title in French.

I have to admit that after reading, the title in Romanian seems more appropriate, closer to the truth.

The thread of the narrative is woven around 3 main characters:
K - who is also the narrator, a young man of almost 25 years, a teacher, passionate about reading, he meets Sumire while still a student, falls in love with her, but expresses himself love through true friendship.

​Today I want to talk about the book of a Bessarabian, journalist, writer in Russian, Vladimir Lorcenkov: "Where rivers of milk and honey flow" the title in Romanian, "Vse tam budem" - the original title, and "Des mille et une façons de quitter la Moldavie" - the title in French, and other titles, because this book has been translated into 10 languages.

I discovered it in 2015 (even if it is from 2006), in a bookstore in France.  At that time, we organized Moldovan-French cultural evenings, and the presentation of a book written by a Moldovan, translated into French, seemed to us a good idea. Okay, I didn't know what the book was about. In the end, the person who was supposed to come to present the book at the event didn't come, and I bought it from the bookstore and started reading it.
