Really cute book. I read this one in Japan, bought it from a shop in Osaka in a small book store at the Minoh falls. A place you should visit in autumn when you are in Japan.
I did not read it for a long time, also because my japanese level was not as good as I wanted it to be.
The book consists of short stories, based on customers coming into the French restaurant in Japan. Often about solving a mistery the book is written in a interesting and sometimes thrilling way. Every story has his right to be there and has a message it wants to convey.
It means a lot to me now. Talking also often about love, I really connect this book to my girlfriend who I met here in Japan. She always wanted to read it, so I gave it to her and we talked a lot about it, after she finished reading it. Her message she wrote me, when she gave it back to me, is still in the book.
