Originally published in Japan in 2019 it is the chronicle of how in June 2018 35-year-old
Morimoto Shoji known as "Rental Person? started a peculiar service: he will do anything -
seeing you off when moving sharing a soda with you being alongside when submitting divorce
papers watching a baseball game with you even accompanying somebody as they have hemorrhoid
removal surgery- so long as it conforms to his one and only requirement that he "do nothing?.
Since then he has been rented by more than 4 thousand people and his Twitter following is
over 235 000. Reflecting on his unusual rental experiences the book uncovers his thoughts on
what may be a new movement in how we look at work relationships and life and how we often
have trouble talking about the things most important to us with the people closest to us. The
story has appeared on The Washington Post and several other media outlets worldwide
