Book Review- Before We say Goodbye by Toshikazu Kawaguchi
(For reference: 1st - Before Coffee Gets Cold, 2nd- Tales from Cafe, 3rd- Before your memory fades )
The regulars at Café Funiculi Funicula (and regular readers) are familiar with its whimsical ability to take them on a journey into the past—along with the strict rules involved, including that each traveller must return to the present before their coffee gets cold. This collection also features four remarkable stories of grief, closure, pain, and life: The Husband with Something Important Left to Say, The Woman Who Couldn’t Bid Her Dog Farewell, The Woman Who Couldn’t Answer a Proposal, and The Daughter Who Drove Her Father Away.
Again, a heartwarming read that can be devoured in one day or savoured chapter by chapter. This saga has an interesting ending!!
