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.
