About this listen
The million-copy bestselling series.
Toshikazu Kawaguchi’s heartwarming Tales from the Cafe, translated from Japanese by Geoffrey Trousselot, explores the age-old question: what would you do if you could travel back in time? More importantly, who would you want to meet, maybe for one last time?
In a small back alley in Tokyo, there is a cafe which has been serving carefully brewed coffee for more than one hundred years. But this coffee shop offers its customers a unique experience: the chance to travel back in time . . .
From the author of Before the Coffee Gets Cold comes a story of four new customers each of whom is hoping to take advantage of Cafe Funiculi Funicula's time-travelling offer. Among some faces that will be familiar to readers, we will be introduced to:
The man who goes back to see his best friend who died 22 years ago
The son who was unable to attend his own mother’s funeral
The man who travelled to see the girl who he could not marry
The old detective who never gave his wife that gift . . .
This beautiful tale tells the story of people who must face up to their past, in order to move on with their lives.
Continue the heartwarming storytelling with Before Your Memory Fades, Before We Say Goodbye and Before We Forget Kindness - all out now!

Wonderful story, don't care for the narration
I love the author and their storytelling, however I struggled to get through this audiobook, as I did not like the choice of narrator. He is too expressive and gruff for a story that is so slow and soft. I wish the rest of the series was narrated by the narrator of the first book, Arina Ii. I really want to finish the series but with this narrator it will be very hard to do.

Should have stopped at original
This is awful and juvenile just a pale shadow of the first which was an original and charming story.
