Toshikazu Kawaguchi, Before the Coffee Gets Cold







- A tender and delightful story about the delicacy of loving relationships, for both old and young people. 

- The old husband suffering from Alzheimers who can’t recognise his wife; the young male IT professional who takes a job offer in America but can’t see the suffering of his girlfriend who is in love with him. The bar owner who is estranged from her parents returns to the family home for her younger sister’s funeral but they still want nothing to do with her. The pregnant woman who is likely to die if she gives birth. 

- Every time someone enters the cafe the author describes what they are wearing. Why?
