Tales from the Cafe :

Before the Coffee Gets

Cold
 By
Toshikazu Kawaguchi
Pan MacMillan
 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 . . .

From the author of Before the Coffee Gets Cold comes Tales from
the Cafe, a story of four new customers each of whom is hoping to
take advantage of Cafe Funiculi Funicula's time-travelling offer.

Among some faces that will be familiar to readers of Toshikazu

Kawaguchi's previous novel, we will be introduced to:

The man who goes back to see his best friend who died 22 years ago
The son who was unable to attend his own mother's funeral
The man who travelled to see the girl who he could not marry
The old detective who never gave his wife that gift . . .

This beautiful, simple tale tells the story of people who must face up
to their past, in order to move on with their lives. Kawaguchi once
again invites the reader to ask themselves: what would you change
if you could travel back in time?
