Toshikazu Kawaguchi’s touching Before Your Memory Fades, 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?
On the hillside of Mount Hakodate in northern Japan, Cafe Donna Donna
is fabled for its dazzling views of Hakodate port. But that’s not all.
Cafe Donna Donna offers its customers the extraordinary experience of
travelling through time.
From the author of Before the Coffee Gets Cold and Tales from the Cafe
comes another heartfelt story of lost souls hoping to take advantage of
the cafe's time-travelling offer. Among some familiar faces, readers
will also be introduced to:
The daughter who begrudges her deceased parents for leaving her orphaned
The comedian who aches for his beloved and their shared dreams
The younger sister whose grief has become all-consuming
The young man who realizes his love for his childhood friend too late .
. .
Featuring Kawaguchi's signature wistful storytelling, Before Your
Memory Fades is full of heart and emotion.
Catch up on the rest of the series set in the charming Tokyo cafe
Funiculi Funicula, with Before the Coffee Gets Cold, Tales from the
Cafe and Before We Say Goodbye.
