the pages of a book' ______________ From the author of the Morisaki Bookshop novels
comes a charming and poignant story set at a quiet Tokyo café where customers find unexpected
connection and experience everyday miracles. Tucked away on a narrow side street in Tokyo is
the Torunka Café a neighbourhood nook where the passersby are as likely to be local cats as
tourists. Its regulars include Chinatsu Yukimura a mysterious young woman who always leaves
behind a napkin folded into the shape of a ballerina Hiroyuki Numata a middle-aged man
who' s returned to the neighbourhood searching for the happy life he once gave up and
Shizuku the café owner' s teenage daughter who is still coming to terms with her
sister' s death as she falls in love for the first time. While the Torunka Café serves up a
perfect cup of coffee it provides these sundry souls with nourishment far more lasting.
Satoshi Yagisawa brilliantly illuminates the periods in our lives where we feel lost - and how
we find our way again.
