Cuatro clientes visitan una cafetera mgica en Japn para enfrentarse a su pasado y ganarse un nuevo comienzo lleno de esperanza.
En el corazn de Hakodate hay un lugar extraordinario: una pequea cafetera que sirve caf con un aroma intenso y envolvente, capaz de hacerte evocar emociones lejanas y de revisitar un momento del pasado. Sin embargo, adentrarse en este establecimiento tan especial no es para todos, y solo los que renen el coraje necesario pueden arriesgarse. Es el caso de Yayoi, quien, privada del cario de sus padres cuando an era muy pequea, no cree poder afrontar la vida con una sonrisa. O Todoroki, cuya exitosa carrera no le dio la oportunidad de apreciar la felicidad que siempre tuvo a su alcance. O Reiko, que nunca lleg a pedirle perdn a su hermana y ahora se siente aplastada por la culpa. O Reiji, para quien una simple frase como «Te quiero todava representa un obstculo insuperable. A todos les gustara poder cambiar lo que ya fue, volver atrs y empezar de nuevo, pero borrar el pasado no es siempre la mejor opcin. Lo que importa, como transmite Kawaguchi en esta emotiva novela, es aprender de l para construir un futuro ms brillante.

A comedian who aches for his beloved and their shared dreams
A younger sister whose grief has become all-consuming.
