An award-winning story of love, friendship, and the power of human
connection. Kohei Araki believes that a dictionary is a boat to
carry us across the sea of words. But after thirty-seven years of
creating dictionaries, it's time for him to retire and find his
replacement. He discovers a kindred spirit in Mitsuya Majime-a
young, disheveled square peg with a penchant for collecting
antiquarian books and a background in linguistics-whom he swipes
from his company's sales department. Along with an energetic, if
reluctant, new recruit and an elder linguistics scholar, Majime is
tasked with a career-defining accomplishment: completing The Great
Passage, a comprehensive 2,900-page tome of the Japanese language.
On his journey, Majime discovers friendship, romance, and an
incredible dedication to his work, inspired by the words that
connect us all.
