The million-copy bestselling series Now as a beautiful, collectible
hardback - the perfect gift Toshikazu Kawaguchi’s moving Before
the Coffee Gets Cold, translated from Japanese by Geoffrey
Trousselot, explores the age-old question: what would you do if you
could travel back in time? More importantly, who would you want to
meet, maybe for one last time? In a small back alley in Tokyo,
there is a cafe which has been serving carefully brewed coffee for
more than one hundred years. But this coffee shop offers its
customers a unique experience: the chance to travel back in time.
In Before the Coffee Gets Cold, we meet four visitors, each of whom
is hoping to make use of the cafe’s time-travelling offer, in
order to: confront the man who left them, receive a letter from
their husband whose memory has been taken by early onset
Alzheimer's, see their sister one last time, and meet the daughter
they never got the chance to know. But the journey into the past
does not come without risks: customers must sit in a particular
seat, they cannot leave the cafe, and finally, they must return to
the present before the coffee gets cold . . . Continue the
heartwarming series with Tales from the Cafe and Before Your Memory
Fades.
