Product Description
The Phone Box at the Edge of the World
Author: Laura Imai Messina
Format: Hardcover
On a windswept hillside in Japan, a garden overlooking the sea holds a disused phone box where visitors come to lift the receiver and speak into the wind, sending words to the loved ones they have lost. After the tsunami takes her mother and daughter, Yui is left grieving and unsure how to carry on, until she hears of the phone box and makes her own pilgrimage there.
There she meets Takeshi, a widower whose young daughter has fallen silent, and the connection that grows between them begins to mend what feels broken.
