书籍简介

Before the Coffee Gets Cold 川口俊和：咖啡冷掉之前（2017本屋大赏） Toshikazu Kawaguchi 

如果你能回到过去，你会改变什么?  

在东京的一个小后巷里，有一家咖啡馆，一百多年来一直供应精心煮好的咖啡。 但这家咖啡店为顾客提供了一种独特的体验:回到过去的机会。  

在《咖啡冷掉之前》中，我们遇到了四位游客，他们都希望利用咖啡馆的时间旅行功能，目的是: 面对离开他们的男人，收到丈夫的一封信，他的记忆已经被早期阿尔茨海默病带走，最后一次看到他们的姐姐，并见到他们从来没有机会知道的女儿。  

但是，回到过去的旅程并非没有风险:顾客必须坐在特定的座位上，他们不能离开咖啡馆，最后，他们必须在咖啡变冷之前回到现在……  

Toshikazu Kawaguchi美丽动人的故事——由Geoffrey Trousselot翻译自日文——探索了一个古老的问题:如果你能回到过去，你会改变什么? 更重要的是，你想见谁，也许是最后一次?  

What would you change if you could go back in 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.

In Before the Coffee Gets Cold, we meet four visitors, each of whom is hoping to make use of the cafe's time-travelling offer, in order to: confront the man who left them, receive a letter from their husband whose memory has been taken by early onset Alzheimer's, to see their sister one last time, and to meet the daughter they never got the chance to know.

But the journey into the past does not come without risks: customers must sit in a particular seat, they cannot leave the cafe, and finally, they must return to the present before the coffee gets cold . . .

Toshikazu Kawaguchi's beautiful, moving story - translated from Japanese by Geoffrey Trousselot - explores the age-old question: what would you change if you could travel back in time? More importantly, who would you want to meet, maybe for one last time?

Before the Coffee Gets Cold: Tales from the Cafe 川口俊和：在谎言拆穿之前（咖啡冷掉之前 续集） Toshikazu Kawaguchi

在东京的一条小巷子里，有一家咖啡馆，供应精心冲泡的咖啡已有一百多年的历史。但是这家咖啡店为顾客提供了一种独特的体验：有机会回到过去。 . .

来自《咖啡冷掉之前》一书的作者，讲述了四位新顾客的故事，他们每个人都希望能够利用 Funiculi Funicula 咖啡馆的时间旅行优惠。

在川口俊一之前小说的读者熟悉的一些面孔中，我们将介绍：

回去看望22年前去世的最好朋友的男人

无法参加母亲葬礼的儿子

那个去见他不能娶的女孩的男人

那个从来没有送过妻子那份礼物的老侦探。 . .

这个美丽而简单的故事讲述了人们必须正视过去，才能继续生活的故事。川口再次邀请读者自问：如果可以回到过去，你会改变什么？

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 Tales from the Cafe, 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 of Toshikazu Kawaguchi's previous novel, 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, simple tale tells the story of people who must face up to their past, in order to move on with their lives. Kawaguchi once again invites the reader to ask themselves: what would you change if you could travel back in time?
