More Days at the Torunka Cafe

Satoshi Yagisawa, the author of the international bestselling phenomenon Days at the Morisaki Bookshop welcomes you back through the doors of the Torunka Café.

Stopping by for a cup of coffee at the Torunka Café, nestled down a beautiful Tokyo side street, locals and tourists from all walks of life experience small, everyday miracles.

In this volume, three heartwarming stories unfold at the café. Chiyoko, an elderly woman who has been frequenting the Torunka for twenty years, reflects on her long forgotten memories of her first love; Kota, the childhood friend of the café owner's daughter, struggles with his deeply held feelings until a surprising run-in with a film crew; and quotation-loving illustrator Ayako, feeling burned out and unsure of what direction to take next, finds that a chance encounter with an old friend changes everything . . .
