Sentaro has failed: he has a criminal record, drinks too much, and
hasn't managed to fulfil his dream of becoming a writer. Instead,
he works in a tiny confectionery shop selling dorayaki, a type of
pancake filled with sweet bean paste. With only the blossoming of
the cherry trees to mark the passing of time, he spends his days
listlessly filling the pastries. Until one day an elderly,
handicapped woman enters the shop. Tokue makes the best bean paste
imaginable, and begins to teach Sentaro her art. But as their
friendship flourishes, societal prejudices become impossible to
escape, in this quietly devastating novel about the burden of the
past and the redemptive power of friendship.
