ABOUT THE BOOK
The international bestseller, in a special festive jacket.
What would you do if you could go back in time?
In a small back alley in Tokyo, there is a café that has been serving carefully brewed coffee for more than a hundred years. But this coffee shop offers its customers a unique experience: the chance to travel back in time.
We meet four visitors, each hoping to use the café’s offer: to confront the man who left them, to receive a letter from a husband whose memory has been taken by early-onset Alzheimer’s, to see a sister one last time, and to meet the daughter they never had the chance to know. But the journey has its rules: they must sit in a particular seat, they cannot leave the café, and they must return to the present before the coffee gets cold…
