Tales From The Cafe

Beskrivelse

Step into a quaint Tokyo cafe with a century-long history, where coffee is more than just a drink-it’s a gateway to the past. In Tales from the Cafe, four new visitors explore the chance to revisit moments long gone.

A heartfelt journey through time that reveals the power of confronting the past to embrace the future.

Hidden in a quiet alley, this special cafe has been serving its carefully brewed coffee for over one hundred years. But its true magic lies in offering customers a unique opportunity: to travel back in time.

From the author of Before the Coffee Gets Cold, Tales from the Cafe introduces four new customers, each eager to make use of Cafe Funiculi Funicula’s extraordinary time-travel experience. Alongside familiar faces from Kawaguchi’s previous novel, readers meet:

• A man revisiting his best friend who passed away 22 years earlier.
• A son who missed his own mother’s funeral.
• A man journeying back to see the woman he never married.
• An elderly detective who never gave his wife a special gift.

This touching and straightforward story explores how facing one’s past is essential to moving forward. Once again, Kawaguchi invites readers to ponder a compelling question: if you could travel back in time, what would you change?
