Toshikazu Kawaguchi 3 Books Collection Set [Before the Coffee Gets Cold; Tales from the Cafe & Before Your Memory Fades]

Product Information

A short book which seemed too long amd repetitive for me (like how it happened with Autumn by Ali Smith). The novel Before the Coffee Gets Cold is adapted from a 1110 Productions play by Kawaguchi, which won the 10th Suginami Drama Festival grand prize. Somewhere the following passes someone’s mind: But none of those feelings could be formed into words.

It’s the fascinating central conceit that will attract most people, and many will be asking themselves the same question on finishing the book.The author beautifully told us how to face the death of our loved ones in this book by convincing us to stay happy and always keep on smiling so that the person who died can see us happy from the dark box (The author compares death to a dark box in this novel) to make him/her also happy. I have just picked up a library copy because the premise sounds so enticing, but I doubt that I will bother with it now. This is by no means a great novel, but I found the time travel rules fairly amusing (and frustrating, but it kind of delighted me in that regard as well). The first revolves around a woman wanting to speak to her ex-boyfriend one last time, while a nurse who often drops by decides to go back and talk to her husband, an Alzheimer’s sufferer whose memory is being eroded day by day. it felt so real, and being faced with reality sometimes feels a little too overwhelming, but as i mentioned before, the manner in which the author approaches this is so soft and so gentle.

SK Global Acquires Toshikazu Kawaguchi's 'Before The Coffee Gets Cold' For Series Development With Jackal Group".My very favorite things are lovely things, and simple, wonderful magical realism is my favorite hard-to-find-done-well genre, and for a while it seemed like this could qualify as being both of those things. In the final part, one of the staff members decides that the time has come to sit down and try the coffee herself.
